John 15 — Context

I am the vine, you are the branches: he who is in me at all times as I am in him, gives much fruit, because without me you are able to do nothing.

If a man does not keep himself in me, he becomes dead and is cut off like a dry branch; such branches are taken up and put in the fire and burned.

If you are in me at all times, and my words are in you, then anything for which you make a request will be done for you.

Here is my Father's glory, in that you give much fruit and so are my true disciples.

Even as the Father has given me his love, so I have given my love to you: be ever in my love.

If you keep my laws, you will be ever in my love, even as I have kept my Father's laws, and am ever in his love.

I have said these things to you so that I may have joy in you and so that your joy may be complete.
