1 John 3:21
_ _ Beloved — There is no “But” contrasting the two cases, 1 John 3:20, 1 John 3:21, because “Beloved” sufficiently marks the transition to the case of the brethren walking in the full confidence of love (1 John 3:18). The two results of our being able to “assure our hearts before Him” (1 John 3:19), and of “our heart condemning us not” (of insincerity as to the truth in general, and as to LOVE in particular) are, (1) confidence toward God; (2) a sure answer to our prayers. John does not mean that all whose hearts do not condemn them, are therefore safe before God; for some have their conscience seared, others are ignorant of the truth, and it is not only sincerity, but sincerity in the truth which can save men. Christians are those meant here: knowing Christ’s precepts and testing themselves by them. |
1 John 3:21
If our heart condemn us not — If our conscience, duly enlightened by the word and Spirit of God, and comparing all our thoughts, words, and works with that word, pronounce that they agree therewith. Then have we confidence toward God — Not only our consciousness of his favour continues and increases, but we have a full persuasion, that whatsoever we ask we shall receive of him. |
1 John 3:21
(21) Beloved, if our heart condemn us not, [then] have we confidence toward God.
(21) A third effect also rises from the former, that in these miseries we are sure to be heard, because we are the sons of God: as we understand by the grace of sanctification which is only for the elect. |
