CHRISTLIKENESS

OUR ETERNAL
PURPOSE

am the true vine, and My

Father is the vinedresser.
Joh 15:2 Every branch in Me
that does not bear fruit He
takes away;[a] and every
branch that bears fruit He
prunes, that it may bear more
fruit.

Joh

15:3 You are already

clean because of the word
which I have spoken to you.
Joh 15:4 Abide 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.

Joh

15:5 I am the vine, you are

the branches. He who abides in
Me, and I in him, bears much
fruit; for without Me you can do
nothing.
Joh 15:6 If anyone does not
abide in Me, he is cast out as a
branch and is withered; and they
gather them and throw them into
the fire, and they are burned.

Joh

15:7 If you abide in Me,

and My words abide in you,
you will[b] ask what you
desire, and it shall be done
for you.
Joh 15:8 By this My Father is
glorified, that you bear much
fruit; so you will be My
disciples.

orgies, and the like. I warn you, as I
did before, that those who live like
this will not inherit the kingdom of
