  11. Must Confess Sins to God • (1 John 1:9-10) • If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say that we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us. (NKJV)

(NKJV) • (Revelation 2:10) “…Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life.” (NKJV)
