The True Vine
John 15:1-8

from The Heavens Declare

I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser.
"Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes
away; and every branch that bears fruit, He prunes it,
that it may bear more fruit.
You are already clean because of the word
which I have spoken to you.
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.
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.
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.
If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ask
whatever you wish, and it shall be done for you.
By this is My Father glorified, that you bear much fruit,
and so prove to be My disciples.
