A Timeless Guide to the Art of Abiding
Many a faithful Christian has pondered over Jesus' command in John 15: "abide in me." Compelled by the invitation but baffled by how to practically achieve it, they fail to grasp the power and promise within the Savior's most important command.
South African pastor, teacher, and writer, Andrew Murray, (1828-1917) believed that abiding was the highest call for every Christian; the key to pressing beyond the mere threshold of salvation into the fullness of all that Jesus's death & resurrection secured.
Arguably the finest of Murray's extensive works, Abide in Christ is a 31-day devotional suffused with glory; a direct invitation to learn and walk in the power of abiding.
In this powerful book, readers are given the opportunity to...
- Unlock the simple secret to practical holiness
- Surrender their gifts and talents for renewal by the Master
- Live a lifestyle marked by overflowing joy
- Access the power of the Holy Spirit
- Grow in true wisdom and spiritual understanding
- Offer up their love to be refined and transformed by the infinite love of God
Written to be read and re-read, this short book is a timeless guide to the fullness of Jesus' words in John 15, how to appropriate their power, and how to live the life of abiding every day.
"Therefore, my brother, who would learn to abide in Jesus, take time each day, ere you read, and while you read, and after you read, to put yourself into living contact with the living Jesus, to yield yourself distinctly and consciously to His blessed influence; so will you give Him the opportunity of taking hold of you, of drawing you up and keeping you safe in His almighty life."
