"Indeed"

 "Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed;" (John 8:31 KJV)

  "He will judge everyone according to what they have done. He will give eternal life to those who keep on doing good, seeking after the glory and honor and immortality that God offers." (Romans 2:6-7 NLT)

 Yes, I could have done 31 and 32 together, but in reality, there are two very different points that Jesus is making. Speaking about reality, that would be a pretty good example of the meaning of indeed! It is one or the other: a reality or pretending. 

 Don't you know by now, it is those who realize that they can't do this, being good thing, that are the ones who keep seeking after the glory and honor and immortality? Those that think that they are being good, are feeling confident that they have already obtained it, and have no real need to seek after it anymore.

 I have learned, more than once, you don't try to be something that you are not, because when you do, you will end up scraping yourself off the ground and wondering, 'What just happened?' It is best to walk in humility and know that you cannot do anything without the Lord's help! 

 Matthew Henry has this to say: "It highly concerns those that are not strong in faith to see to it that they are sound in the faith, that, though not disciples in the highest form, they are nevertheless disciples indeed." Sound in the faith, means, that you understand that you need Jesus, always! We must abide in Him; and by all means, keep abiding in Christ! 

 Do not think that you are stronger than you really are, because that is the recipe for not abiding in Christ...

"I don't mean to say that I have already achieved these things or that I have already reached perfection. But I press on to possess that perfection for which Christ Jesus first possessed me." (Philippians 3:12 NLT)
