Jesus calls His followers to stay deeply connected to Him, because only through that union can they live fruitful lives that reflect God’s glory.
John 15:4–8 Live in me, and I will live in you. A branch cannot produce any fruit by itself. It has to stay attached to the vine. In the same way, you cannot produce fruit unless you live in me. “I am the vine. You are the branches. Those who live in me while I live in them will produce a lot of fruit. But you can’t produce anything without me. Whoever doesn’t live in me is thrown away like a branch and dries up. Branches like this are gathered, thrown into a fire, and burned. If you live in me and what I say lives in you, then ask for anything you want, and it will be yours. You give glory to my Father when you produce a lot of fruit and therefore show that you are my disciples.
Jesus teaches that spiritual life, growth, and fruitfulness are only possible by remaining connected to Him, just as a branch must stay attached to the vine to live.
He is the vine—the life-giver. We are the branches—completely dependent on Him for vitality, direction, and power.
WE NEED GOD. LET US STAY CONNECTED TO GOD.
