John 15

1 "I am the true vine. My Father takes care of it like a farmer."

6 "If someone does not stay in me, they get thrown out like a dead branch. They dry up. People pick them up, toss them in the fire, and they burn."

9 "The Father loves me. I love you the exact same way. Stay in my love!"

16 "You did not choose me. I chose you! I set you apart to go out and grow fruit that lasts forever. Then the Father will give you whatever you ask for in my name."

18 "If the world hates you, remember this: It hated me first!"
