Although some of the "in him" verses are found in the book of Acts and the majority of them found in the Letters to the Churches, as I read through Mark and John during this Bible reading cycle, I discovered similar phrases such as "in my name", "trust in me", "abide in me and I in you" and "I in them and thou in me", spoken by Jesus himself teaching the disciples and through prayer. Not sure if these verses will be counted in this biblical exercise; but, they still encourage my spirit as to who I am in Christ Jesus. I believe Jesus spoke prophetically not only to his twelve but, also to those future disciples, like you and me, who were to hear the Gospel and come to know the Father by faith IN HIM. These are the verses I noticed so far: Mark 16:17; John 1:4, 6:56; 11:25-26; 14:1, 12-14; John 15:4-5, 7 and 16; 17:21 and 26. - Sis Colby Lynne

 Thanks Colby for your post what I was trying to do with the assignment was to help us focus as we are reading and you are paying attention to those details. 

Keep going and God will continue to reveal himself to you and encourage you as you read.

Yes, I agree. I will continue reading and, I know he will continue to reveal himself to me and encourage me too. Thanks, Pastor! :)
