Sachant donc qu'il écoute nos prières, nous avons aussi la certitude d'obtenir ce que nous lui avons demandé. La confiance en la bonté de Dieu assure que les prières sont entendues si elles sont conformes à sa volonté. Prier pour le pardon des fautes de nos frères correspond à la volonté de Dieu. Un seul péché conduit à la mort: avoir connu la vérité de la foi et en renier les fondements. Raison de plus pour redoubler de vigilance!
