Subject: Abiding in Christ |
Bible Note: "To abide in Christ is, on the one hand, to have no known sin unjudged and unconfessed, no interest into which He is not brought, no life which He cannot share. On the other hand, the abiding one takes all burdens to Him, and draws all wisdom, life, and strength from Him. It is not unceasing consciousness of these things, and of Him, but that nothing is allowed in the life which separates from Him." ____________________ Source: Note at John 15:4, New Scofield Reference Bible, 1967, Oxford University Press) |
