John 15:2-6

MNT(i) 2 "He cuts back any of my branches that bear no fruit, and prunes every fruit-bearing branch, that it may bear more. 3 "Now you are clean through the word which I have spoken to you. 4 "Abide in me, and I in you. Just as the branch cannot bear fruit of itself except it abide in the vine, no more can you, unless you abide in me. 5 "I am the Vine you are the branches. He who abides in me and I in him, bears abundant fruit; because apart from me you can do nothing. 6 "If any one does not abide in me he is thrown away like a branch and withers. Such branches are gathered up and thrown into the fire and burned.
