Christ within You, post number 2403

     Keeping to our search for the Truth as a seeker of Truth brings across my thoughts some of what the OT states as found in the following; God Promising the Gentiles to His Messiah:
I, the LORD, have called You in righteousness, and will hold Your hand; I will keep You and give You as a covenant to the people, as a light to the Gentiles . . . It is too small a thing that You should be My Servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the preserved ones of Israel; I will also give You as a light to the Gentiles, that You should be My salvation to the ends of the earth. (Isa. 42:6 and 49:6) Next we have the following: God's Ability and His Promises:
Ah, LORD God! Behold, You have made the heavens and the earth . . . There is nothing too hard for You . . . Behold, I am the LORD, the God of all flesh. Is there anything too hard for Me? (Jer. 32:17, 27) Then we find this: More on God's Ability and His Promises:
With men this is impossible, but with GOD all things are possible . . . For with GOD nothing will be impossible. (Mat. 19:26 and Luke 1:37) Also this: More on God's Ability and His Promises:
Our GOD (otherwise it could be the god of the flesh) "whom we serve" (is the key) is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace . . . Now to Him Who is able to keep you from stumbling, and to present you faultless before the presence of His glory with exceeding joy. (Dan. 3:17 and Jude 1:24) How about this: Still More on God's Ability and His Promises:
For this reason I also suffer these things; nevertheless I am not ashamed, for I know Whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him until that Day. (2Titus 1:12) Or maybe this: Once More on God's Ability and His Promises:
Now to Him Who is able to do exceedingly abundantly above all that we ask or think . . . . (Eph. 3:20) Now the big one: God Promising Eternal Life:
And this is the promise that He has promised us—eternal life. (1John 2:25) It cannot get much better or can it: More on the Promise of Eternal Life:
And this is the promise that He has promised us—eternal life . . . And this is the testimony: that GOD has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. (1John 2:25 and 5:11)

The depth of these passages and others of their nature are spread throughout the new and old testament. Jesus and the Father of all humanity are oath bond to their promise and promises by way of Blood Covenant. Now for our passages taken from John chapter 15.
