3306 menô; a prim. vb.; to stay, abide, remain:--abide(16), abides(22), abiding(4), await(1), continue(4), continues(1), endures(3), enduring(1), lasting(2), lives(1), living(1), remain(20), remained(6), remaining(1), remains(8), stand(1), stay(11), stayed(11), staying(3), waiting(1). Keeping the words from this lexicon in mind, "abiding" means to STAY DEEPLY STUCK in Christ, rooted in Him at such a deep level that you are as a branch which grows out of a vine, so that your very life and existence find their sap and nourishment in Christ Himself and in no other. Admittedly, a broad interpretation on my part. : ) |

Thank You for your insight. Your answer is in line with what I know of scripture. John 15:4-8 "Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is thrown away as a branch and dries up; and they gather them, and cast them into the fire and they are burned. If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. Just as the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you; abide in My love." |
