1 John 5:16 in Context — 1 John 5
14 Y esta es la confianza que tenemos en él, que si demandáremos alguna cosa conforme á su voluntad, él nos oye.
15 Y si sabemos que él nos oye en cualquiera cosa que demandáremos, sabemos que tenemos las peticiones que le hubiéremos demandado.
16 Si alguno viere cometer á su hermano pecado no de muerte, demandará, y se le dará vida; [digo] á los que pecan no de muerte. Hay pecado de muerte, por el cual yo no digo que ruegue.
17 Toda maldad es pecado; mas hay pecado no de muerte.
18 Sabemos que cualquiera que es nacido de Dios, no peca; mas el que es engendrado de Dios, se guarda á sí mismo, y el maligno no le toca.
