1 John 2:24 As for you, let what you have heard from the beginning remain in you. If it does, you will also remain in the Son and in the Father.
In this life, you will encounter false teachings that are designed to lead you away from the truth of Jesus Christ. John’s encouragement is to hold firmly to what you heard from the beginning of your walk with Jesus.
Remember that Jesus died on the cross for your sins, was buried, and rose again on the third day. Remember who He is and what He has done for you. Remember that you are saved by grace through faith in Him.
Do not be deceived by false teachers who seek to add to, distort, or replace the truth of Christ. Stay rooted in God’s Word and continue trusting in Jesus.
As you hold fast to the gospel and abide in His truth, you will remain in fellowship with the Son and with the Father. God is faithful and will help you continue walking with Him. ~ Jeff M Newman
