ABIDE.

IN THE BOOK OF JOHNS GOSPEL,CHAPTER 15,THE WORD ABIDE WAS USED BY OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST AT LEAST 6 TIMES AND THE WORD ABIDETH ONE TIME.
THIS WAS ALL SPOKEN BY CHRIST AS HE WAS PREPARING TO BE LED AWAY TO BE BEATEN,CURSED,SPAT ON,HIS FLESH RIPPED TO SHREADS,THEN CRUCIFIED FOR MY SIN,AND TRESPASSES! HE WANTED TO GIVE THE DISCIPLES A LAST MINUTE PLEA FOR HOW HE WANTED THEM TO CONDUCT THEMSELVES.JUST A NOTE:THE WORD ABIDE APPEARS 82 TIMES IN 77 VERSES IN THE ENTIRE BIBLE.
IT SIMPLY MEANS TO REMAIN IN THE RELATIONAL (PERSONAL) STANDING YOU ARE IN WITH JESUS.MANY BIBLE EXPERTS WILL TELL YOU THAT THE ONLY WAY TO ACTUALLY GROW AND BARE FRUIT AS A CHRISTIAN IS TO ABIDE IN CHRIST. AND HE WITH YOU. THIS INVOLVES PRAYING,AND STUDYING THE WORD OF GOD DAILY.ALSO READ THE 1ST FEW VERSES OF THE GOSPEL OF JOHN,AND YOU WILL SEE WHO EXACTLY THE WORD IS.WHEN WE ABIDE IN HIM,THE WORD SAYS WE WILL ASK WHAT WE WILL AND IT WILL BE GIVEN TO US. DO NOT ASK AMISS,JUST TO HEAP ON YOURSELVES YOUR LUST. ITS ALL ABOUT JESUS,AND HIM REDEEMING US BACK TO HIM,FOR THE PROPER FELLOWSHIP,JUST LIKE IN THE BEGINNING.BEFORE ADAM FELL.THIS IS A SHORT BLOG,BUT A PLEA FOR THOSE LOST TO COME TO CHRIST BEFORE ITS TO LATE. AND FOR THOSE BACKSLIDEN TO RETURN TO FELLOWSHIP WITH JESUS.MY PRAYER:HEAVENLY FATHER,I LOVE YOU AND WANT TO OBEY YOUR COMMANDMENTS.STARTING WITH LOVING YOU WITH ALL MY HEART.AND LOVE MY NEIGHBOR AS MYSELF.BLESS THE SONG AND PREACHING AND TEACHING SERVICES AT MY CHURCH TOMORROW(ALL DAY).HELP ME AS I ABIDE IN YOU.....AMEN.
