21. Dear friends, if our conscience doesn’t condemn us, we can boldly look to God
22. and receive from him anything we ask. We receive it because we obey his commandments and do what pleases him.
23. This is his commandment: to believe in his Son, the one named Jesus Christ, and to love each other as he commanded us.
24. Those who obey Christ’s commandments live in God, and God lives in them. We know that he lives in us because he has given us the Spirit.
