This past Sunday we looked at the vine and the branches from John 15 and fruitbearing. Fruitbearing is PROOF (evidence) of our union with Christ. How can we tell you are a true follower of Jesus Christ? You are bearing fruit. John 15:4 says," Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself , unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me." If you are not bearing fruit , Jesus says, you are not one of His. Jesus identifies some fruit in John 15- answered prayer, joy- full of joy and love for one another. There is much more fruit but for now think about this- Are you abiding in Christ? are you bearing fruit?
