Now in return for the same--I speak as to children--you also be opened wide.
For this reason I say to you, all things whatsoever you ask for in prayer, believe that you will receive them, and they will be yours.
Brothers, I beseech you, become as I am, because I also am as you are. You have not wronged me at all.
My little children, for whom I labor in birth again until Christ is formed in you!
as indeed you know how each one of you, as a father to his own children, we exhorted, and comforted you, and imploring you,
My little children, these things I write to you, that you may not sin. And if someone should sin, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.
My little children, let us not love in word or in tongue, but in deed and in truth.
Little children, let no one deceive you. The one who practices righteousness is righteous, just as He is righteous.
I have no greater joy than these things, that I hear that my children are walking in truth.
