Jesus likens His relationship with us to a vine and a branch. Just like how a branch cannot bear fruit if it isn’t connected to a vine, we are spiritually dead when we do not abide in God.

But we abide in Christ when we believe and accept Him as our Lord and Saviour, and follow Him obediently.

It is Jesus who causes us to “bear much fruit”, guiding us to live out our purpose in God’s kingdom.

Are you a true believer who abides in Christ? Do you know the real Jesus? Are you obediently following Him?
