THE TRUE VINE

John 15:1-11 (NASB)
¹  "I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser.
²  "Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit, He prunes it so that it may bear more fruit.
³  "You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.
⁴  "Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless you abide in Me.
⁵  "I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing.
⁶  "If anyone does not abide in Me, he is thrown away as a branch and dries up; and they gather them, and cast them into the fire and they are burned.
⁷  "If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you.
⁸  "My Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit, and so prove to be My disciples.
⁹  "Just as the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you; abide in My love.
¹⁰  "If you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love; just as I have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love.
¹¹  "These things I have spoken to you so that My joy may be in you, and that your joy may be made full.

1. Abide In The True Vine & Grow

2. Accept Purposeful Pruning Or Permanent Removal

3. Anticipate Joyfully Bearing Much Fruit
