12 Bible Verses about Abiding With God

John said: I saw the spirit descending as a dove out of heaven upon him.

I did not know he was the one. God sent me to baptize in water and said: 'You will see one upon whom the spirit descends. The same is he who baptizes in Holy Spirit.'

He who eats my flesh and drinks my blood abides with me, and I with him.

Jesus told the Jews who believed him: If you dwell in my word you truly are my disciples.

Remain with me, and I with you. The branch cannot bear fruit by itself. It must remain on the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain with me.

I am the vine and you are the branches. He that remains with me, and I with him, the same bears much fruit. You can do nothing apart from me.

If a man does not remain with me, he is removed as a branch, and withers. They gather them and throw them into the fire where they are burned (destroyed) (consumed).

If you remain with me, and my words remain with you, ask whatever you will, and it will be done for you.

I love you just as the Father has loved me. Remain in my love.

If you obey my commandments you will remain in my love. I have obeyed my Father's commandments and remain in his love.

You did not choose me. I chose you and appointed you. You should go and bear fruit and your fruit should remain. Whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

Observe both God's kindness and severity. Severity is for those who fail to continue. But kindness is for you as long as you continue in his kindness. Otherwise you will be cut off.
