This episode is based on a Gospel Gal article by the same title. Marissa and Joy discuss misperceptions of abiding, synergistic teaching, and the ways Biblical and Reformed theology give us comfort and assurance on this subject. 

"Many times when we think of what it means to abide, we think that we need to do everything we can to stay close to Christ. We think that our relationship with Christ is so one-sided that it is up to us to continue to keep it alive. Unless we abide in Him, we are cut away and thrown into the fire. What comes to mind is an image of a hamster running on a wheel with no rest, motivated by the threat and terror of the law. However, our aim with this post is to show that the famous passage in John 15 is rich with comfort and mercy and that our abiding in the Vine is actually saving faith that connects us to Christ and all of His benefits."
