Verse Takeaways

A Divine Partnership
Commentators emphasize that Jesus' statement, "All mine are thine, and thine are mine," is a profound declaration of His equality and perfect unity with the Father. Scholars note that no mere creature could say "thine are mine" to God. This shared ownership means that if you belong to Christ, you also belong to the Father, establishing what one source calls a "blessed union of interests" that is the foundation of a believer's security.
