Jesus said, “I am the vine, and you are the branches.”
Branches have to stay connected to the vine to grow grapes. If a branch breaks off, it can't grow anything!
Jesus said, “Stay close to me, and you'll grow good fruit like love, kindness, and joy. Without me, you can't do anything.”
Key Verse
I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.John 15:5, ESV
