This does not mean to seal as a jar being sealed. Think as
"the great seal of the state of Ohio". How they sort of
stamp it on official paperwork proving the legality of a certain thing.
Jesus may initiate action to "cut off" someone who is "in him" if they fail to abide in him.
6: If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. John15:6
