John 15:1-5 I am the true Vine, and my Father is the Gardener. ² He lops off every branch that doesn’t produce. And He prunes those branches that bears fruit for even larger crops.
³ He has already tended you by pruning you back for greater strength and usefulness by means of the commands I gave you, says Jesus
⁵ Yes, I am the Vine; you are the branches. Whoever lives in Me and I in him shall produce a large crop of fruit. For apart from Me you can’t do a thing. Amen
