I Am The Vine And You Are The Branchs

I am the Vine; you are the Branches

JN 15:1 "I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. 2 He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful. 3 You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. 4 Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.

JN 15:5 "I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If anyone does not remain in me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned. 7 If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you. 8 This is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.

Pruning, removal of parts of woody plants, usually branches or branch tips, to relieve the burden on the remaining parts of the plant, to cut out diseased or broken parts, to increase the quantity and quality of flowers or fruits, to train individual parts to positions structurally favorable to the health of the plant, or to shape the plant into some artificial form.

We have been studying about fruit. We have learned about good fruit and bad fruit. We learned that the fruit that you produce shows whether you are a good person or a bad person. Today we are going to look at where we draw life from. A plant must be living in order to grow fruit. If you have accepted Jesus as your savior then you are drawing life from Him. The life and energy that you get from him helps you to produce fruit. You are a branch that must rely totally on the life that Jesus gives to you.

Remember everything you do and say are seeds that you are planting let’s look at a picture of a seed.

You can see after a seed is planted how it grows. Your words and your actions are just like these seeds. They will grow and produce fruit one day. But whether that fruit will be good fruit or bad fruit is up to you. Only you can decide to choose to do bad or good in your life. Your choice then determines if you are a good branch or a bad branch.
