Remain simply means to “stay put.” This can be good or bad depending on the circumstances. When it comes to the things of God, we should remain connected to Him, remain in love, remain steadfast in hope. If we are not connected to the Word, we will die a spiritual death. We use the very Word of God to guide our lives and to keep us from harm. We are not lone rangers and cannot bear any fruit outside of Him. Our very words, thoughts, and deeds depend upon our being connected to Him. Whatever you do, you must remain, stay put, connected to the one true and living God in order to bare spiritual fruit.
Remain in me, as I also remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me. John 15:4 NIV
