1 John 3:17-19

New King James Version

¹⁷ But ^(A)whoever has this world’s goods, and sees his brother in need, and shuts up his heart from him, how does the love of God abide in him?

¹⁸ My little children, ^(B)let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth. ¹⁹ And by this we ^[a]know ^(C)that we are of the truth, and shall ^[b]assure our hearts before Him.
