John Chapter 15 Verse 4‹Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me.›

‹These things have I spoken unto you, being› [yet] ‹present with you.›

‹But the Comforter,› [which is] ‹the Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send in my name, he shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you.›

‹Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid.›

‹Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come› [again] ‹unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.›

‹And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.›

‹Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.›

‹But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.›

‹I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman.›

‹Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every› [branch] ‹that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit.›

‹Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.›

‹I am the vine, ye› [are] ‹the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.›

‹If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast› [them] ‹into the fire, and they are burned.›

‹If ye abide in me, and my words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you.›

‹Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples.›

‹As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love.›

‹If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.›

‹These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and› [that] ‹your joy might be full.›

‹This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you.›

‹Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.›

‹Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you.›
