bwe - John:15:1-7

bwe@John:15:1 @ I am the real fruit tree. My Father is the One who takes care of the tree.

bwe@John:15:2 @ He takes away from me every branch that does not bear fruit. And he cleans every branch that bears fruit so that it will bear more fruit.

bwe@John:15:3 @ What I said to you has made you clean already.

bwe@John:15:4 @ But you must be in me and I will be in you. The branch cannot bear fruit by itself. It must be joined to the tree. And you cannot do any good thing if you are not joined to me.

bwe@John:15:5 @ I am the fruit tree and you are the branches. I will be in the person who is in me. That person will have a fruitful life. But you can do nothing without me.

bwe@John:15:6 @ If any person is not in me, he is cut off like a branch and dies. People gather the dry branches and throw them into the fire to be burned.

bwe@John:15:7 @ If you are in me and obey me, you may ask me for anything you want and I will give it to you.
