Focusing on the Greek preposition "eis," this book explores the deeper meanings behind the phrases "believe in Jesus" and "believe on Jesus," revealing how traditional translations may obscure significant content in John's Scriptures. By examining every instance where this preposition is used in relation to belief in Jesus or God, readers gain insights that encourage ongoing growth in faith. The author advocates for alternative translations like "believe toward Jesus" or "believe into Jesus," emphasizing the importance of continual spiritual development after initial belief.

Most believers in Jesus have heard that we should abide in Jesus: to stay in Him, a command in John 15 and 1John. But John's whole Gospel and all of 1John show a meaning of this command that is rarely seen fully in English, and is too rarely put into full practice in our lives. God calls for His children to abide in Jesus, a life and ministry amazingly like what Jesus lived on earth. Staying in Jesus is a vital theme of both John's Gospel and 1John. Our not realizing this theme has greatly weakened our personal and corporate life and growth in God on earth. A simple issue has caused so few believers to see this vital theme in John's books: an assumed way to partly translate a Greek word ina about 25 times (about 10% of John's use of ina). In this book we can see that fully translating ina shows God's revelation of sources of vital outcomes, and shows why most of us have not fully moved into them. Part 2 of this book shows all 213 times John used ina in the Bible.
