Abide in the Son.

1 John 2:23-24, No one who denies the Son has the Father. Whoever confesses the Son has the Father also. Let what you heard from the beginning abide in you. If what you heard from the beginning abides in you, then you too will abide in the Son and in the Father.

Over the years I’ve heard various public personalities called “The Antichrist,” but I think scripture is clear that when that individual comes on the scene no one will need to write a book about it. John makes it clear that there were many “antichrists” that went out from them in his day as there are today, those who deny that Jesus is the Christ. And as we abide in him, he abides in us and will bring forth his fruit!

We abide in you and confess before all that you are Jesus, Lord of all, the Christ, the Son of God!
