mnt@John:15:2 @ "He cuts back any of my branches that bear no fruit, and prunes every fruit-bearing branch, that it may bear more.

mnt@John:15:3 @ "Now you are clean through the word which I have spoken to you.

mnt@John:15:4 @ "Abide in me, and I in you. Just as the branch cannot bear fruit of itself except it abide in the vine, no more can you, unless you abide in me.

mnt@John:15:5 @ "I am the Vine you are the branches. He who abides in me and I in him, bears abundant fruit; because apart from me you can do nothing.

mnt@John:15:6 @ "If any one does not abide in me he is thrown away like a branch and withers. Such branches are gathered up and thrown into the fire and burned.

mnt@John:15:7 @ "If you abide in me and my words abide in you, ask whatever your will is, and it shall be yours.

mnt@John:15:8 @ "By this is my Father glorified, by your bearing abundant fruit, and so being my disciples.

mnt@John:15:14 @ "You are my friends if you do what I command you.

mnt@John:15:15 @ "I no longer call you slaves, because a slave does not know what his master is doing; but I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything that I have learned from my Father.

mnt@John:15:16 @ "You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you, that you should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should remain; so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you.

mnt@John:15:20 @ "Remember what I told you, A slave is not better than his master. If they persecuted me, they will persecute you. If they have obeyed my word, they will obey yours also.

mnt@John:15:21 @ "But they will do all these things to you for my names sake, because they know not Him who sent me.

mnt@John:15:22 @ "If I had not come and spoken to them, they would have no sin; but now they have no excuse for their sin.

mnt@John:15:23 @ "He who hates me hates my Father also.

mnt@John:15:24 @ "If I had not done among them such works as none ever did, they would have had no sin; but now they have both seen and hated both me and my Father.
