"Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me." John 15:4
"Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me." John 15:4
To abide is to live or dwell and our dwelling is in Him! He in us and we in Him, to be One in Christ is our spiritual residence. So, what does it truly mean to be in Christ? When we are born-again the Holy Spirit comes in us to abide with us and at the same time, we have a co-union with Christ just as a branch does in a vine!
We become One with the Father, Son and Holy Spirit and New Creations in Christ! No longer bound to this world we become supernatural beings grafted into a supernatural vine and we begin to bear fruit for the Kingdom of God! As the scripture says old things (habits, addictions, etc.) pass away and all things become new.
Imagine a vineyard, where a vine planted on a fence can grow and as long as there is no hinderance it will grow into infinity! This is the will of God for His body to be free to grow and expand and not be a potted plant!
That they all may be One as You, Father, are in Me, and I in You; that they also may be One in Us, that the world may believe that You sent Me. John 17:21
