   1. Abiding in Christ does not lead to ease - it leads to pruning.
   2. Salvation is not at stake in abiding- but joy is.
   3. Abiding in Christ is not an individual sport - it’s done in community.
   4. Abiding in Christ is not the pursuit of feelings - it’s the pursuit of holiness.
   5. Abiding in Christ is not occasional - it’s moment by moment.
   6. Abiding in Christ is not without opposition - the world, the flesh, and the devil hate it.
   7. Abiding in Christ is not sustained by our commitment - it’s sustained by grace.
