1 John 2:28 And now, little children, abide in him, so that when he appears we may have confidence and not shrink from him in shame at his coming. #Bible
That word "abide" has great meaning, to continue with, to sojourn with, to wait for, to stay close, in relationship with Jesus.
Maybe John is implying Jesus is the narrow path, and when we abide in Jesus we are on that path, and not on the wide path that leads to destruction.
So continue to stay close in intimate relationship with Jesus so there is no shame.
