1 John 5:14 Context
12Hee that hath the Sonne, hath life; and hee that hath not the Sonne, hath not life. 13These things haue I written vnto you that beleeue on the Name of the Sonne of God, that ye may know, that ye haue eternall life, and that yee may beleeue on the Name of the Sonne of God. 14And this is the confidence that we haue in him, that if wee aske any thing according to his will, hee heareth vs. 15And if we know that he heare vs, whatsoeuer wee aske, wee know that we haue the petitions that wee desired of him. 16If any man see his brother sinne a sinne which is not vnto death, hee shall aske, and he shall giue him life for them that sinne not vnto death. There is a sinne vnto death: I doe not say that he shall pray for it.
