The term "remaineth" is an archaic form of the word "remains," often found in older translations of the Bible. It signifies something that continues to exist or endure. In the context of Scripture, "remaineth" is used to convey the enduring nature of certain spiritual truths, principles, or entities.

Biblical Usage:

1. Faith, Hope, and Love:
One of the most well-known passages that uses the concept of "remaineth" is found in 1 Corinthians 13:13. The Apostle Paul writes, "And now these three remain: faith, hope, and love. But the greatest of these is love." . Here, Paul emphasizes the enduring nature of these three virtues, highlighting love as the greatest. This passage underscores the eternal significance of love in the Christian life, suggesting that while other gifts may cease, these virtues will persist.

2. The Sabbath Rest:
In Hebrews 4:9, the author states, "There remains, then, a Sabbath rest for the people of God" . This verse speaks to the spiritual rest that believers enter through faith in Christ. The "Sabbath rest" is a metaphor for the peace and rest found in salvation, which remains available to all who believe. It points to the ultimate rest in the presence of God, which is a promise for the faithful.

3. The Word of God:
The enduring nature of God's Word is another theme where "remaineth" is applicable. Isaiah 40:8 declares, "The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever" . This verse is echoed in 1 Peter 1:25, affirming the permanence and unchanging nature of divine revelation. The Word of God remains a constant source of truth and guidance for believers throughout all generations.

4. The Kingdom of God:
Hebrews 12:28 speaks of a kingdom that "cannot be shaken," indicating its permanence. The verse reads, "Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God acceptably with reverence and awe" . The unshakeable nature of God's kingdom assures believers of its eternal stability and the enduring reign of Christ.

Theological Implications:

The concept of "remaineth" in Scripture often points to the eternal and unchanging aspects of God's nature and His promises. It serves as a reminder of the steadfastness of God's love, the reliability of His Word, and the certainty of His kingdom. For believers, these truths provide assurance and hope, encouraging them to remain steadfast in their faith and to trust in the enduring promises of God.

In summary, "remaineth" in the biblical context highlights the continuity and permanence of key spiritual realities, offering believers a foundation upon which to build their faith and live out their Christian walk.
