John - ch 15 v 1 - 20
- "I am the true vine, and my Father is the farmer.
- Every branch in me that doesn't bear fruit, he takes away. Every branch that bears fruit, he prunes, that it may bear more fruit.
- You are already pruned clean because of the word which I have spoken to you.
- Remain in me, and I in you. As the branch can't bear fruit by itself, unless it remains in the vine, so neither can you, unless you remain in me.
- I am the vine. You are the branches. He who remains in me, and I in him, the same bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.
- If a man doesn't remain in me, he is thrown out as a branch, and is withered; and they gather them, throw them into the fire, and they are burned.
- If you remain in me, and my words remain in you, you will ask whatever you desire, and it will be done for you.
- "In this is my Father glorified, that you bear much fruit; and so you will be my disciples.
- Even as the Father has loved me, I also have loved you. Remain in my love.
- If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and remain in his love.
- I have spoken these things to you, that my joy may remain in you, and that your joy may be made full.
- "This is my commandment, that you love one another, even as I have loved you.
- Greater love has no one than this, that someone lay down his life for his friends.
- You are my friends, if you do whatever I command you.
- No longer do I call you servants, for the servant doesn't know what his lord does. But I have called you friends, for everything that I heard from my Father, I have made known to you.
- You didn't choose me, but I chose you, and appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain; that whatever you will ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you.
- "I command these things to you, that you may love one another.
- If the world hates you, you know that it has hated me before it hated you.
- If you were of the world, the world would love its own. But because you are not of the world, since I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
- Remember the word that I said to you: 'A servant is not greater than his lord.'1 If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you. If they kept my word, they will keep yours also.
- John 13:16
