1 John 3:21

²⁸Now, little children, remain in him, that when he appears, we may have boldness and not be ashamed before him at his coming.

¹⁶Let’s therefore draw near with boldness to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and may find grace for help in time of need.

¹²For our boasting is this: the testimony of our conscience that in holiness and sincerity of God, not in fleshly wisdom but in the grace of God, we behaved ourselves in the world, and more abundantly toward you.

²I will be careful to live a blameless life. When will you come to me? I will walk within my house with a blameless heart.

³LORD, my God, if I have done this, if there is iniquity in my hands, ⁴if I have rewarded evil to him who was at peace with me (yes, I have plundered him who without cause was my adversary), ⁵let the enemy pursue my soul, and overtake it; yes, let him tread my life down to the earth, and lay my glory in the dust. Selah.

¹⁴This is the boldness which we have toward him, that if we ask anything according to his will, he listens to us.

²⁶For then you will delight yourself in the Almighty, and will lift up your face to God.

¹⁷In this, love has been made perfect among us, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, because as he is, even so we are in this world.

²²let’s draw near with a true heart in fullness of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and having our body washed with pure water,

⁶I hold fast to my righteousness, and will not let it go. My heart will not reproach me so long as I live.
