The one who says he remains in him should walk just as he walked.
1 John 2:6, CSB
We need God, and He gave us the example of how to live in Jesus Christ. He helps us walk in faithfulness and love by the power of Holy Spirit, so let us trust Him and follow Him.
Remain in me, and I in you. Just as a branch is unable to produce fruit by itself unless it remains on the vine, neither can you unless you remain in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in me and I in him produces much fruit, because you can do nothing without me.
John 15:4-5, CSB
Jesus is our life and power, and by His Spirit we are able to do amazing things to change this world for the glory of the Father.
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.
John 15:4-5, ESV
We are all called to priests under our High Priest, and we do this by living in, by, and through the indwelling Word. Know the Scriptures to know Jesus better, and allow the Holy Spirit to transform you ever more into His likeness.
So we have come to know and to believe the love that God has for us. God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.
1 John 4:16, ESV
The hope of Christ is that the long-awaited Messiah has come, and His love fills us and connects to God and to each other.
Love well.
Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity!
Psalm 133:1, ESV
We are called to unity in Christ, and it is something that the world will notice. May we abide in Christ and with each other.
Let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity.
1 Timothy 4:12, ESV
God takes care of us, especially as we seek Him and study His Word. He shows that He even cares about how we feel about what others think. As long as we remain in Chriat, His thoughts are all we need to care about. (But we will still care for others!)
Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.
1 John 4:15, ESV
To know God and be known by Him is to believe in the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, the Son of God who saves us from sin and wrath, and the Holy Spirit dwells in us. Only then do we have true hope for the future.
“Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.”
John 15:4-5, NIV
Apart from Christ, we can’t do any truly good things. Only in Christ are we capable of truly good works, His righteousness infusing us and flowing through us.
whoever says he abides in him ought to walk in the same way in which he walked.
1 John 2:6, ESV
We are called to sacrifice of ourselves, just as our Lord did, to spread the Gospel and change the world.
Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.
John 15:4, ESV
God has sought us out, but we must also choose to honor and love Him.
The best way love others is to love and seek God with everything we are, for He first loved us.
