John 15:5

John 15:5

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.

<< John 15:4

John 15:6 >>

John 15:5 I am the vine, ye [are] the branches. He has already declared (John 15:1) that he is the True Vine, but he had not before declared that every disciple is a branch of the Vine. Observe that, not denominations, but church members, are the branches. The disciple, without Christ, "can do nothing". Paul declared, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me" (Philippians 4:13).
