Never Leave

John 15:6 
If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. (NIV)

You go for years never using your insurance. No accidents with the vehicle. No medical issues. No home incidents. Then you look at what it costs and wonder if you should drop them. Look how much you would save? But, is that wisdom?

We have heard the old adage "Don't burn your bridges". When we move from one job to another or even from one church to another we have learned how important it is to leave on good terms and not in anger. Words once said can never be taken back and can come back to bite you many years later.

Well, what about this verse and our salvation? As born again believers we have the spirit of Christ within. We are in Him and He is in us. If we pull away from Him there is no going back. We have burned our bridges and the only path lleft eads to destruction.
