The True Vine

1 “I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser.
2 aEvery branch in Me that does not bear fruit He1 takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear bmore fruit.  
3 aYou are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.  
4 aAbide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, 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, bears much afruit; for without Me you can do bnothing.  
6 If anyone does not abide in Me, ahe is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned.  
7 If you abide in Me, and My words aabide in you, byou will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.  
8 aBy this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; bso you will be My disciples.  

Love and Joy Perfected

9 “As the Father aloved Me, I also have loved you; abide in My love.  
10 aIf you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and abide in His love.
