“Whosoever [abideth] in him sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen him, neither known him.” Commentary: Let us look at the word “abideth.” It means to remain in Christ! To be steadfast waiting with great expectation with patience towards circumstances and people. Jesus is the anchor to our soul! You hold fast to your faith throughout all circumstances! You trust God not men! So what scriptures come to your mind outside of this scripture? There is another scripture that says all have sinned and come short of the glory of God! How about where it says if any man say he is not a sinner he is a liar! All these scriptures are true so how do they reconcile to 1 John 3:6? Remember sin means to transgress the law! We have all broken the law except Christ! He came to fulfill the law even death on a Cross! When you abide in Christ you are abiding in his salvation! He took your judgment for your sin! When the Father sees you through the blood of Christ you are as if you had never sinned just like your Christ! The miracle of Christ in him you are a sinless sinner! There are only two kinds of people in the earth. Forgiven sinners and unforgiven sinners! Forgiven sinners in heaven and unforgiven sinners in hell. Those separated from Christ do not abide in him! Why is it some people reject the gift of eternal life with Christ? They would rather be in charge of their own hell than to submit to the authority of God and the heaven he has waiting for them! They have to keep their sin and abandon their redemption! Some would rather be in charge of hell than to be a servant in heaven! This is the same problem Lucifer or Satan had! Rebellion against God brings destruction in the earth! Riots, Burning! Looting! Murder! As long as I remain in charge does not matter how many people I sacrifice! God sacrificed himself on the Cross for you! Satan and his followers sacrifice others for themselves! Who are you following? James and Hamsa Sasse. GodWhoisGod.com
