DESCRIPTION
Abiding in Jesus is vital to maintaining full joy in Him. In this passage John reminds us that we can be confident that we abide in Him because of two things God has done for us: 1) given us of His Spirit and 2) sent His Son as Savior; and two things we must do: 1) Confess Jesus is the Son of God and 2) abide in love.
