John 15

Jesus delivers the Vine and the Branches allegory, declaring, "I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener." He teaches that disciples must remain (abide) in Him to bear spiritual fruit, because apart from Him, they can do nothing. Jesus emphasizes that their relationship is characterized by loving one another and obeying His commands. He warns that because the world hated Him, it will also hate His followers, but the Spirit will testify about Him.
