1. Jesus said, “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.
2. He cuts off every branch of mine that does not produce fruit. He also trims every branch that produces fruit to prepare it to produce even more.
3. You have already been prepared to produce more fruit by the teaching I have given you.
4. Stay joined to me and I will stay joined to you. No branch can produce fruit alone. It must stay connected to the vine. It is the same with you. You cannot produce fruit alone. You must stay joined to me.
