20 Pois, se o nosso coração [nos] condena, maior é Deus que o nosso coração, e conhece tudo.

21 Amados, se nosso coração não nos condena, temos confiança diante de Deus.

22 E qualquer coisa que pedirmos, dele receberemos; porque guardamos os seus mandamentos, e fazemos o que lhe agrada.

23 E este é o seu mandamento: que creiamos no nome do seu Filho Jesus Cristo, e nos amemos uns aos outros, como ele nos mandou.

24 E a pessoa que guarda os seus mandamentos está nele, e ele nela. E nisto sabemos que ele está em nós: pelo Espírito que ele nos deu.
