What does the Bible say about Jesus being the one thing needful?
Answered in 1 source
The Bible teaches that Jesus Christ is essential for salvation and sustenance, as illustrated in John 15:5.
In Luke 9:37-42, we see Jesus' pivotal role as the one thing needful not only for those who do not know Him but also for believers throughout their lives. He emphasizes that without Him, we can do nothing (John 15:5). This theme is reiterated through examples in the passage where Christ is called upon in times of distress, highlighting our perpetual need for His grace and intervention. Jesus settles all disputes and answers every question we have. He is the anchor for our souls, providing peace amid the chaos of worldly struggles, demonstrating that our ultimate reliance must be on Him alone.
