<div class="SSN_rnum">I. AND NOW LITTLE CHILDREN, ABIDE IN HIM.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">A. This is the main message of the Holy Spirit to us, verse 27.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">B. This is the secret of a victorious Christian life.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">1. I believe that failure to live an overcoming life can be traced to a person not abiding in Christ.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">C. This is the great mystery of past ages that was not revealed to the Old Testament prophets or saints, "Christ in you the hope of glory."</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">1. God, the eternal creator of all things has chosen to dwell in me, what an awesome thought.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">2. Jesus said, "In that day you will know that I am in My Father and you are in Me, and I am in you."</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">D. The results of this relationship.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">1. We begin to bear spiritual fruit.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Jhn',15,4);">JOH 15:4</a> Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.</div>
|

<div class="SSN_level3">2. We enter into new dimensions in our prayer life.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Jhn',15,7);">JOH 15:7</a> If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.</div>

|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Jhn',17,23);">JOH 17:23</a> I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; and that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them, as thou hast loved me.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">4. We become dead to the things of the flesh and alive unto God.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Rom',8,10);">ROM 8:10</a> And if Christ [be] in you, the body [is] dead because of sin; but the Spirit [is] life because of righteousness.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">5. I now live my life unto Him.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Gal',2,20);">GAL 2:20</a> I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">6. I begin to comprehend the vastness of God's love.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Eph',3,17);">EPH 3:17</a> That Christ may dwell in your hearts by faith; that ye, being rooted and grounded in love,</div>

<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Eph',3,18);">EPH 3:18</a> May be able to comprehend with all saints what [is] the breadth, and length, and depth, and height;</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Eph',3,19);">EPH 3:19</a> And to know the love of Christ, which passeth knowledge, that ye might be filled with all the fulness of God.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">7. We walk as He walked.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('1Jo',2,6);">1JO 2:6</a> He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.</div>

|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Gal',2,20);">GAL 2:20</a> I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.</div>

|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('2Cr',13,5);">2CO 13:5</a> Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">2. Like a withered branch you will be gathered to be burned.</div>

|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Rev',4,4);">REV 4:4</a> And round about the throne [were] four and twenty seats: and upon the seats I saw four and twenty elders sitting, clothed in white raiment; and they had on their heads crowns of gold.</div>

<div class="SSN_rnum">III. WHAT IS MEANT BY "NOT BE ASHAMED BEFORE HIM AT HIS COMING?"</div>
|

<div class="SSN_level2">A. When Jesus comes for His church we will all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Rom',14,10);">ROM 14:10</a> But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ.</div>

<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('2Cr',5,10);">2CO 5:10</a> For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things [done] in [his] body, according to that he hath done, whether [it be] good or bad.</div>
|

<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('1Cr',3,13);">1CO 3:13</a> Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is. Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men;</div>

<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Hbr',4,13);">HEB 4:13</a> Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things [are] naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.</div>

<div class="SSN_level2">B. We have the parable of Jesus of the day when He shall demand an accounting by His servants of the things entrusted to them.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Luk',19,12);">LUK 19:12</a> He said therefore, A certain nobleman went into a far country to receive for himself a kingdom, and to return.</div>

<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Luk',19,14);">LUK 19:14</a> But his citizens hated him, and sent a message after him, saying, We will not have this [man] to reign over us.</div>
|

<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Luk',19,15);">LUK 19:15</a> And it came to pass, that when he was returned, having received the kingdom, then he commanded these servants to be called unto him, to whom he had given the money, that he might know how much every man had gained by trading.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Luk',19,16);">LUK 19:16</a> Then came the first, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained ten pounds.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Luk',19,17);">LUK 19:17</a> And he said unto him, Well, thou good servant: because thou hast been faithful in a very little, have thou authority over ten cities.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Luk',19,18);">LUK 19:18</a> And the second came, saying, Lord, thy pound hath gained five pounds.</div>
|

<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Luk',19,19);">LUK 19:19</a> And he said likewise to him, Be thou also over five cities.</div>

<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Luk',19,20);">LUK 19:20</a> And another came, saying, Lord, behold, [here is] thy pound, which I have kept laid up in a napkin:</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Luk',19,21);">LUK 19:21</a> For I feared thee, because thou art an austere man: thou takest up that thou layedst not down, and reapest that thou didst not sow.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Luk',19,22);">LUK 19:22</a> And he saith unto him, Out of thine own mouth will I judge thee, [thou] wicked servant. Thou knewest that I was an austere man, taking up that I laid not down, and reaping that I did not sow:</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Luk',19,23);">LUK 19:23</a> Wherefore then gavest not thou my money into the bank, that at my coming I might have required mine own with usury?</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Luk',19,24);">LUK 19:24</a> And he said unto them that stood by, Take from him the pound, and give [it] to him that hath ten pounds.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Luk',19,25);">LUK 19:25</a> (And they said unto him, Lord, he hath ten pounds.)</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Luk',19,26);">LUK 19:26</a> For I say unto you, That unto every one which hath shall be given; and from him that hath not, even that he hath shall be taken away from him.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_verse"><a onClick="return mV('Luk',19,27);">LUK 19:27</a> But those mine enemies, which would not that I should reign over them, bring hither, and slay [them] before me.</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level2">C. When you stand before Jesus in that day of judgment, when all of your works have been tried by fire, and you will then be rewarded for what you have done for Him, will you be ashamed?</div>
|
|
<div class="SSN_level3">1. Peter speaks of an abundant entry into the kingdom of God. Will your entry be abundant?</div>
