Jesus is the Vine
And
We are the Branches
John
15
1 I am the True Vine, and my Father is the Husbandman.
2 Every branch in me that beareth not fruit He
taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, He purgeth it, that it may
bring forth more fruit.
3 Now ye are clean through the Word which I have
spoken unto you.
4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch
cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye,
except ye abide in Me.
5 I am the Vine, ye are the branches: He that
abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me
ye can do nothing.
6 If a man abide not in Me, he is cast forth as
a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire,
and they are burned.
7 If ye abide in Me, and My Words abide in you,
ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.
8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear
much fruit; so shall ye be My disciples.
9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved
you: continue ye in My love.
10 If ye keep My commandments, ye shall abide in My
love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in His love.
11 These things have I spoken unto you, that My
joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.
12 This is My commandment, That ye love one
another, as I have loved you.
13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man
lay down his life for his friends.
14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I
command you.
15 Henceforth I call you not servants; for the
servant knoweth not what his lord doeth: but I have called you friends; for all
things that I have heard of My Father I have made known unto you.
16 Ye have not chosen Me, but I have chosen you,
and ordained you, that ye should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit
should remain: that whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in My Name, He may
give it you.
17 These things I command you, that ye love one
another.
18 If the world hate you, ye know that it hated Me
before it hated you.
19 If ye were of the world, the world would love
his own: but because ye are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the
world, therefore the world hateth you.
20 Remember the word that I said unto you, The
servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted Me, they will
also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.
21 But all these things will they do unto you for
my Name's sake, because they know not Him that sent me.
22 If I had not come and spoken unto them, they
had not had sin: but now they have no cloke for their sin.
23 He that hateth me hateth my Father also.
24 If I had not done among them the works which
none other man did, they had not had sin: but now have they both seen and hated
both Me and my Father.
25 But this cometh to pass, that the Word might
be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.
26 But when the Comforter is come, whom I will
send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of Truth, which proceedeth from
the Father, He shall testify of me.
27 And ye also shall bear witness, because ye
have been with me from the beginning.
If you are disconnected right now from the Vine, you can
become reconnected with Jesus and begin to bear good fruit that will last.
Give your heart to Jesus and turn your life over to Him.
If you are backslidden, come back to the Father’s House.
He is waiting for you to return back home, and will give you a robe to wear and
a ring and bless you abundantly. He will throw a party and have a celebration
and feast to welcome you back home.
Prayer of
Salvation
It
is God's will that no one should perish (end up in hell), but that ALL should
come to repentance.
For God so loved this world that He gave His only begotton Son,
that whosoever believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
God did not send His Son into this world to condemn the world,
but that the world through Him would be saved.
The thief (Satan the devil) comes only for to kill, steal and
destroy. But Jesus has come to give us life, and life more abundantly, until it
overflows.
I urge you to come to the Cross today and receive Jesus as your
Savior and Lord. He will wash away all your sins and make you as clean and
white as fresh snow.
Please do not put it off for another time in the future. I urge
you to not delay. Come to the Lord today and give Him your heart and life. He
will save, and heal you and make you whole.
Please do not delay, because on this earth there are no
guarantees that a person will wake up in the morning. Also, you could be
driving on the highway and be involved in a major collision and be instantly
killed. You may be flying in a jet or aircraft and the plane crashes and
everybody is killed.
A person does not know the exact date that they will die. But
the fact is that every person will eventually taste of death (unless you are
translated to Heaven which is very rare and highly unlikely, although it could
happen for a few that is. it happened for Enoch, Elijah and
Elisha).
Come to the Cross today and do not delay. Time is of the
essence. If you should die not knowing Christ, then you would perish and end up
in hell. Eternity is a very long time. Do not play games with your salvation or
takes unnecessary risks.
Just pray this prayer and mean it with your heart:
Dear Lord Jesus,
I receive You as my Savior and Lord. I give my life over to You.
I believe that You died and rose again, and that if I call on the Name of the
Lord I shall be saved.
I accept you into my heart right now, and confess that You are
Lord and have risen from the dead and forever live to make intercession for
me.
Thank You for washing my heart pure and clean and making me
whole, and for giving me peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.
Thank You that now I am a new creature in Christ Jesus. The old
has gone and the new has come.
And there is no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus,
who walk not after the flesh (carnality and sin), but walk after the
Spirit. In Jesus' Name, Amen.
If you prayed this prayer, I believe you got born again and are
now heaven bound and will be with the Lord forever and have eternal life. Your
sins are now forgiven. You are accepted in the Beloved.
I would encourage you to find a good Bible based local church to
help you grow in your faith, to learn the Word of God, to praise and worship
Him, and to have fellowship with the saints.
Serving Christ is the best decision you will ever make.
Only Jesus can satisfy your soul, and only He can heal your
heart and make you whole.
He will give you peace you never knew, and sweet love and joy,
and Heaven too, for only Jesus can satisfy your soul.
God bless you!!!
