1 John 3:24
The one who keeps God’s commands lives in him, and he in them.
And this is how we know that he lives in us: We know it by the Spirit he gave us.
[New International Version]
This verse emphasizes the mutual relationship between us and God, grounded in alignment to His commands.
By following God’s commandments, we demonstrate our commitment to live in harmony with Him, reflecting faith and love. God abides in us in return, symbolizing His active presence and guidance.
The verse reassures us of this connection through the Holy Spirit, a God-given gift that confirms His presence. The Spirit serves as a divine witness, providing inner assurance of God’s love and transforming our lives to flourish with His will.
