1 John 2:17
And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever.
And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever.
If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father's commandments and abide in his love. These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you, and that your joy may be full.
And the world is passing away along with its desires, but whoever does the will of God abides forever.
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ” (Ephesians 1:3). Paul is telling us, “All who follow Jesus are blessed with spiritual blessings in heavenly places, where Christ is.” What an incredible promise to God’s people.
This promise becomes mere words if we don’t know what these spiritual blessings are. How can we enjoy the blessings that God promises us if we don’t comprehend them?
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.
So Jesus said to the Jews who had believed him, “If you abide in my word, you are truly my disciples, and you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free.”
And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he appears we may have confidence and not shrink from him in shame at his coming.
What does it mean when Jesus says to abide? Watch as Pastor Tim Dilena explains how to abide in God and give Him your time.
