THE TRUE VINE.

"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. 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. 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 word 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 ye shall 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."

"FIRST!"
