A Spotlight on the Scriptures: John 15:5: Abide And Abound

Welcome to Biblical Talks Podcast with Michael Tolliver.

This podcast is dedicated to Biblical teaching and having world view discussions from a Biblical

perspective.

Here is today's podcast.

This is a spotlight on the Scriptures.

John 15 and 5.

I am the vine, you are the branches, whoever buys in me and I am him.

He is that bad as much food, from apart from me you can't do nothing.

Abiding Christ, stay close, stay connected, stay rooted.

This ain't just about religion, it's about a relationship.

Jesus is not a weekend appointment, he's your lifeline, your source, your sustainer.

He said, I am the vine, you are branches.

That means if you are not plugged in, you are drying out.

You can't ghost Jesus Monday through Saturday and spare a revival on Sunday.

You can't binge the world all week and spare to bear fruit and worship.

Just doesn't come from a glance, it comes from a glaze.

Power doesn't come from a visit, it comes from a body.

You won't spill your vitality, you won't hold it, fire, you want to be useful in the

kingdom, then you got to hang out with Jesus.

Not just in the century, but in the secret place.

Not just in the crowd, but in the communion, because abiding is intimacy.

It's walking with him, talking with him, leaning on him, it's letting the world shape

your thoughts, his spirit guide to stealth, his little fuel your life.

So don't just show up, stay in him.

Don't just check in, pressing, because only those who abide, abound.
