The thought behind the quote
The Greek word used for "abide" in this verse is "menō," which implies a constant, enduring relationship. When John writes that we ought to walk in the same way Jesus walked, he is telling us that our actions, choices, and lifestyle should reflect the example set by Christ. It is not enough to say that we are followers of Jesus; we need to live in a manner that demonstrates our application of His word.
