The True Vine
John 15:1-5
New King James Version (NKJV)
15 “I am the true vine, and My Father is the vine dresser. 2 Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit. 3 You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you. 4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.
5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.
- Can the wine be healthy and the branch not?
- Can the wine be rich and the branch not?
- Only way: Stop the sap, clock it.

Abide
- Abide means Remain where you are
- You are already a branch

We are Human Being
- NOT Human Doing
World making it normal
Worldly Wisdom
- “You are a responsible Person”
- “You are taking care”
These things increase the stress, worry and fear in our lives
- “If i care about you, i worry about you”
Behind the scene
Aim of me could be,
- So other people can see that I care
- So you can see that I care
Gods way
- “Because I am responsible, I won’t worry about that”
Practically
- Its not about taking care of the situation
- Its not about working well about the situation
- Its about, I am not concerned, i am not burdened
