•John 15:1   “I am the true vine, and My Father is the gardener. 2  “Every branch in Me that bears no fruit He takes away. And every branch that bears fruit He prunes, so that it bears more fruit. 3  “You are already clean because of the Word which I have spoken to you. 4  “Stay in Me, and I stay in you. As the branch is unable to bear fruit of itself, unless it stays in the vine, so neither you, unless you stay in Me. 5  “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who stays in Me, and I in him, he bears much fruit. Because without Me you are able to do naught! 6  “If anyone does not stay in Me, he is thrown away as a branch and dries up. And they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned. 7  “If you stay in Me, and My Words stay in you, you shall ask whatever you wish, and it shall be done for you. 8  “In this My Father is esteemed, that you bear much fruit, and you shall be My taught ones. 9  “As the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you. Stay in My love. 10  “If you guard My commands, you shall stay in My love,a even as I have guarded My Father’s commands and stay in His love.
