The Safest Place: *In Him*

IN HIM was life; and the life was the light of men. That whosoever believeth IN HIM should not perish, but have eternal life. For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth IN HIM should not perish, but have everlasting life. Now is the Son of man glorified, and God is glorified IN HIM. I find IN HIM no fault at all.

Through His name whosoever believeth IN HIM shall receive remission of sins. For IN HIM we live, and move, and have our being. How shall they believe IN HIM of whom they have not heard? IN HIM shall the Gentiles trust. But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we IN HIM; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by Him. For all the promises of God IN HIM are yea, and IN HIM Amen, unto the glory of God by us. For God hath made JESUS to be Sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God IN HIM. For we also are weak IN HIM, but we shall live with Him by the power of God toward you. According as He hath chosen us IN HIM before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before Him in love. And be found IN HIM, not having mine own righteousness, which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the righteousness which is of God by faith. For it pleased the Father that IN HIM should all fulness dwell. As ye have therefore received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk ye IN HIM. Rooted and built up IN HIM, and stablished in the faith, as ye have been taught, abounding therein with thanksgiving. For IN HIM dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily. And ye are complete IN HIM, which is the head of all principality and power.

God is light, and IN HIM is no darkness at all. But whoso keepeth His word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are IN HIM. He that saith he abideth IN HIM ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked. And now, little children, abide IN HIM; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before Him at his coming. And ye know that Christ Jesus was manifested to take away our sins; and IN HIM is no sin. Whosoever abideth IN HIM sinneth not: whosoever sinneth hath not seen Him, neither known Him. Hereby know we that we dwell IN HIM, and He in us, because He hath given us of His Spirit. And this is the confidence that we have IN HIM, that, if we ask any thing according to His will, He heareth us. And we know that the Son of God is come, and hath given us an understanding, that we may know Him that is true, and we are IN HIM that is true, even in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God, and eternal life.

When you get close to Death's door, there's going to be two things you're going to need most:  The Precious Blood of God manifest in the flesh, and the Presence and Comfort of the Holy Ghost. When you are nearing Death's door, you'll find out for sure who your friends are then.  So if you're lost in your sins right now, be wise, and get really familiar with the Precious Blood and Holy Spirit way ahead of time.
