1[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 1“I am the true vine, and My Father is the keeper of the vineyard. |
2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 2He cuts off every branch in Me that bears no fruit, and every branch that does bear fruit, He prunes to make it even more fruitful. |
3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 3You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. |
4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 4Remain in Me, and I will remain in you. Just as no branch can bear fruit by itself unless it remains in the vine, neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in Me. |
5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5I am the vine and you are the branches. The one who remains in Me, and I in him, will bear much fruit. For apart from Me you can do nothing. |
6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6If anyone does not remain in Me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers. Such branches are gathered up, thrown into the fire, and burned. |
7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7If you remain in Me and My words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. |
8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8This is to My Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, proving yourselves to be My disciples. |
9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 9As the Father has loved Me, so have I loved you. Remain in My love. |
10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10If you keep My commandments, you will remain in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commandments and remain in His love. |
11[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 11I have told you these things so that My joy may be in you and your joy may be complete. |
12[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 12This is My commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. |
13[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 13Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends. |
14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14You are My friends if you do what I command you. |
15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15No longer do I call you servants, for a servant does not understand what his master is doing. But I have called you friends, because everything I have learned from My Father I have made known to you. |
16[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 16You did not choose Me, but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit—fruit that will remain—so that whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you. |
17[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 17This is My command to you: Love one another. |
18[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 18If the world hates you, understand that it hated Me first. |
19[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 19If you were of the world, it would love you as its own. Instead, the world hates you, because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world. |
20[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 20Remember the word that I spoke to you: ‘No servant is greater than his master.’ If they persecuted Me, they will persecute you as well; if they kept My word, they will keep yours as well. |
21[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 21But they will treat you like this because of My name, since they do not know the One who sent Me. |
22[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 22If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now, however, they have no excuse for their sin. |
23[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 23Whoever hates Me hates My Father as well. |
24[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 24If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin; but now they have seen and hated both Me and My Father. |
25[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 25But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law: ‘They hated Me without reason.’ |
26[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 26When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father—the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father—He will testify about Me. |
27[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 27And you also must testify, because you have been with Me from the beginning. |
