1“I am the true vine, and My Father is the vineyard keeper.[#Ex 3:14; Jn 8:24,58]
2Every branch in Me that does not produce fruit He removes, and He prunes every branch that produces fruit so that it will produce more fruit.[#Mt 3:10; 7:19; 15:13; Lk 3:9; 13:6-9; Jn 15:6; Rm 11:17,22]
3You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you.[#Ps 24:4; Ti 1:15]
4Remain in Me, and I in you. Just as a branch is unable to produce fruit by itself unless it remains on the vine, so neither can you unless you remain in Me.[#Jn 6:56; 8:28; 1Jn 2:5]
5“I am the vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in Me and I in him produces much fruit, because you can do nothing without Me.[#Jms 3:12; #Mk 4:8]
6If anyone does not remain in Me, he is thrown aside like a branch and he withers. They gather them, throw them into the fire, and they are burned.[#Jn 15:2; #2Th 1:8; #1Th 1:8; 2Pt 3:7]
7If you remain in Me and My words remain in you, ask whatever you want and it will be done for you.[#Jn 14:14]
8My Father is glorified by this: that you produce much fruit and prove to be My disciples.[#Jn 11:4; 17:1; 1Pt 2:12; #Or and become]
9“As the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you. Remain in My love.[#Col 1:13; 1Jn 5:20; Jd 21]
10If you keep My commands you will remain in My love, just as I have kept My Father’s commands and remain in His love.[#Jn 5:19]
11“I have spoken these things to you so that My joy may be in you and your joy may be complete.[#1Jn 1:4; 2Jn 12]
12This is My command: Love one another as I have loved you.[#Jn 3:16]
13No one has greater love than this, that someone would lay down his life for his friends.[#Rm 5:8; 1Jn 3:16]
14You are My friends if you do what I command you.
15I do not call you slaves anymore, because a slave doesn’t know what his master is doing. I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything I have heard from My Father.[#Or lord; #Col 3:22]
16You did not choose Me, but I chose you. I appointed you that you should go out and produce fruit and that your fruit should remain, so that whatever you ask the Father in My name, He will give you.[#Mt 24:22; #Jn 10:25; #Jn 14:13; #Jn 11:22; 16:23]
17This is what I command you: Love one another.
18“If the world hates you, understand that it hated Me before it hated you.[#Lk 6:27; 19:14]
19If you were of the world, the world would love you as its own. However, because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of it, the world hates you.[#Eph 1:4]
20Remember the word I spoke to you: ‘A slave is not greater than his master.’ If they persecuted Me, they will also persecute you. If they kept My word, they will also keep yours.[#Jn 13:16; #Jn 8:51]
21But they will do all these things to you on account of My name, because they don’t know the One who sent Me.[#Mk 13:13; Jn 10:25; #Jn 3:11; 7:28; 20:9]
22If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin. Now they have no excuse for their sin.[#To have sin is an idiom that refers to guilt caused by sin.; #Ezk 2:5; 3:7; Jn 9:41; Rm 1:20; 2:1; 6:23]
23The one who hates Me also hates My Father.[#Jn 5:23]
24If I had not done the works among them that no one else has done, they would not have sin. Now they have seen and hated both Me and My Father.[#Jn 5:36; Heb 3:9; Rv 15:3; #Jn 3:2; 7:31; 9:32; 10:32,37; #Jn 9:41]
25But this happened so that the statement written in their scripture might be fulfilled: They hated Me for no reason.[#Jn 12:38; 13:18; 17:12; 18:9,32; 19:24,36; #Ps 69:4; #Ps 69:4]
26“When the Counselor comes, the One I will send to you from the Father — the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father — He will testify about Me.[#Jn 14:16; #Jn 14:26; #Ps 119:142; Jn 1:33; 14:17; 16:13; Rm 3:7; 1Jn 4:6]
27You also will testify, because you have been with Me from the beginning.[#Ac 4:20]
