180:2.1 Then [[Jesus]] stood up again and continued [[teaching]] his [[apostles]]: " I am the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Vine true vine], and [[the Father|my Father]] is the husbandman. I am the vine, and you are the branches. And [[the Father]] requires of me only that you shall bear much [[Fruits of the Spirit|fruit]]. The vine is pruned only to increase the fruitfulness of its branches. Every branch coming out of me which bears no fruit, [[the Father]] will take away. Every branch which bears fruit, [[the Father]] will cleanse that it may bear more fruit. Already are you clean through the [[word]] I have [[spoken]], but you must continue to be clean. You must abide in me, and I in you; the branch will die if it is [[separated]] from the vine. As the branch cannot bear fruit except it abides in the vine, so neither can you yield the fruits of loving [[service]] except you abide in me. [[Remember]]: I am the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Vine real vine], and you are the living branches. He who lives in me, and I in him, will bear much [[fruit of the spirit]] and [[experience]] the [[supreme]] [[joy]] of yielding this [[spiritual]] [[harvest]]. If you will [[maintain]] this living spiritual [[connection]] with me, you will bear [[abundant]] fruit. If you abide in me and my [[words]] live in you, you will be able to [[commune]] freely with me, and then can my [[Spirit of Truth|living spirit]] so infuse you that you may ask whatsoever my [[spirit]] wills and do all this with the [[assurance]] that [[the Father]] will grant us our [[petition]]. Herein is [[the Father]] [[glorified]]: that the vine has many living branches, and that every branch bears much fruit. And when the world sees these fruit-bearing branches—my [[friends]] who [[love]] one another, even as I have loved them—all men will know that you are truly my [[disciples]].[http://nordan.daynal.org/wiki/index.php?title=Gospel_of_John#Chapter_15]
