The word of God describes us as the branches (whose duty is to receive nutrients and bear fruits). The kind of fruits we bear defines the kind of Christians (or the type of people) we are. The fruits showcases the way we live our lives. Little wonder the Scripture says that by their fruits, you shall know them. This kind of fruit can only be produced when we are connected to the real source which is God Himself. It's just like the moon which aligns to the sun to radiate the light that the sun produces. We too can bring forth this fruit, this light if we properly align ourselves. Nothing else is suppose to cross our minds as should be ready to forgive those who have sinned us because that's the stand in his paths to make heaven.
His is love and he is everything we need as his people to inherit his enternal kingdom and glory at the last day for only those who trust in him.
Committing our selves onto the lord is very important because for everybody who has given his or her life to him would always be controlled by his will and powers. God created us and put a unique thing in our life. When we abide in Him, He too abides in us and then we can bear forth more fruits. When we bear fruits, we are pruned to bear forth more and more. As we are pruned and purged to bear forth more and more, the Father is glorified. As the Father is glorified, the foundation of our discipleship becomes solidified and much more fruitful. To remain with Him is to live a life of submission to His will. It is to say like Paul, "it's no longer I who lives, but Christ that lives in me, because this life I live, I live by Faith in Christ who died for me". For Paul, he emptied himself for God because God was his priority; the essence of his being. The Scripture says that whosoever loves me shall keep my commandment and this commandment is a commandment of love. This is only possible when we walk by the Spirit. Hence, to be Spirit-filled becomes a sine qua non. Suarez therefore abiding in him gives us true grace and believe in him.
