NASB | John 15:4 "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. |

Bible Note: Also, Nelson's NKJV Study Bible states concerning John 15:4, "For the branch to produce more fruit, it must abide, which means to dwell, to stay, to settle in, to sink deeper. The way to abide in Christ is to obey (see John 15:10; 1 John 3:24). The believer who lovingly obeys the Word of God produces much fruit." Also, The MacArthur Study Bible (NKJV) states, "The word 'abide' means to remain or stay around. The 'remaining' is evidence that salvation has already taken place (1 John 2:19) and not vice versa. The fruit or evidence of salvation is continuance in service to Him and in His teaching (John 8:31; 1 John 2:24; Col. 1:23). The abiding believer is the only legitimate believer. Abiding and believing actually are addressing the same issue of genuine salvation (Heb. 3:6-19). For a discussion of the perseverance of the saints, see note on Matt. 24:13".. |
