John 15 is one of the most challenging and hard-to-understand passages in the New Testament. It is often used as a go-to passage to say that you can lose your salvation. This is quite a long study due to the complexity of the passage, but we will study the meaning of "abiding in Christ" and how it is manifest when somebody does not abide.
