Keep bearing much fruit. - John 15:8I appreciate this in the comments on the text today:
As we endure, we experience in our heart a lasting feeling of peace that results from knowing that we have Jehovah's and Jesus;' approval.Then it references Rom. 5:3, which point out that we "rejoice while in tribulations since we know that tribulation produces endurance". This in turn creates an "approved condtion" which becomes "hope".
What was the "fruit" Jesus referred to? It was the preaching work. The message was simple, "The Kingdom of the heaves has drawn near." Today, that message is, "The Kingdom of the heavens is here!"
By reaching this message to those humble ones that desire to learn about Jehovah, it produces hope, the hope of everlasting life.
If we endure in doing this, we will be placed in an approved condition by Jehovah and Jesus, and gain the precious gift we have been promised. (Matt. 24:13)
Stay safe!
