John 15:4-9

4Live 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.

5“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.

6Whoever 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.

7If you live in me and what I say lives in you, then ask for anything you want, and it will be yours.

8You give glory to my Father when you produce a lot of fruit and therefore show that you are my disciples.

9“I have loved you the same way the Father has loved me. So live in my love.
