Understanding True Discipleship and the Book of Life

Welcome to the Christian Bible Study Ministry podcast! In this episode, we delve into two interconnected themes from the Scriptures: remaining steadfast in the word of Christ and the significance of the Book of Life as mentioned in the books of John and Revelation.

We begin by exploring John 8:25-31, where Jesus emphasizes the importance of continuing in His word to prove true discipleship. This passage highlights how genuine belief and adherence to Jesus' teachings mark one as a true disciple, bringing freedom through the truth.
