Romans Series #16
*Romans 11:33-36 *
*What a Beautiful Vine*
You don't look at a plant and say "wow, what a beautiful branch that is, I wish I had a branch like that."
You might see a beautiful flower or the fruit of a plant and say, "that's a beautiful flower, so I want some of those flowers."
So are you then going to decide, "I need to get me some rose stems?"
Or "I love those beautiful apples, so I'm going to get me some branches from an apple tree."
No, if you want roses, you say "I want a rose bush so that I can have roses."
I don't even think about the stems.
Or if you like the apples, "I loves apples, so I want an apple tree so I can have apples."
I don't even think about the branches.
It's about the tree, it's about the bush.
Fruit or blooms are produced FROM the root, the vine.
Fruit is produced through the nutrients, DNA, of the Vine.
i.e. an apple tree produces apples because that's what is in it's DNA, it's nature.
Grape vines produce grapes, Rose bushes produce roses.
Fruit or blooms are produced, to GLORIFY the vine, the plant.

The Root or the Vine is God*
John 15:1-8
/The Vine and the Branches /
15 "I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener.
?2?
He cuts off every branch in me that bears no fruit, while every branch that does bear fruit he prunes so that it will be even more fruitful.
?3?
You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you.
?4? Remain in me, and I will remain in you.
No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine.
Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.
?5? "I am the vine; you are the branches.
If a man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.
?6?
If anyone does not remain in me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned.
?7?
If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be given you.
?8?
This is to my Father's glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves to be my disciples.
We are just branches
It must have his DNA

Creation is From Him
Do you understand that everything that God does in this universe is done simply because he commands it.
He created Heaven and Earth, Animals, the seas teaming with Fish, the skies full of birds, the smallest insects, the tiniest atoms with nothing more than his command.
God Speaks and it is done
God does not work hard to get the Sun to rise in the morning, he is not struggling to keep the earth spinning like some player trying to spin a basketball on their finger.
God simply speaks and it is done.
And yet for some strange reason it is not always so with man.
Dallas Willard says, "the only place in all of creation where God's effected will is permitted to be absent is in the heart of man."
By the way, if it were NOT true, then why would some branches have to be cut off and destroyed because they didn't bear fruit?
They didn't bear fruit because they chose not too, they chose not to remain in him and remain in his words.
That does NOT lessen God's Sovereignty, it is just because of his sovereignty that he CAN choose to give up that choice to us and then ask us to use that choice to worship him with obedience
He SPOKE this world into existed
Yet we question his will and wisdom for our day to day.
Created life is FROM HIM

Continued Life is From Him
Greek philosophy known in Paul's days said that everything must have a primary cause (plan), an instrumental cause (power), and a final cause (purpose).
In this world, Jesus Christ, planned Creation, he produced it through the power of his command, and the purpose was for HIS PLEASURE.
Colossians 1:15-17
"?15?
He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.
?16?
For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him.
?17?
He is before all things, and in him all things hold together."
In Him all things adhere to their place, to one another, find their cohesiveness
~*~* - Tour Guide at an atomic laboratory was explaining to a group about matter and how it is composed of rapidly moving electric particles.
They studied models of molecules and were amazed to discover that Matter is made up primarily of SPACE.
That's right SPACE.
One of the greatest components of Matter is the space between things.
Perfectly ordered space I might add.
Because if that space is not right, then everything gets out of order.
So someone spoke up during question and answer period and asked "If matter is made up of so much space, and space is so important, what holds it all together"?
The Laboratory Guide didn't have an answer.
The Answer is simple, It is the Command of God the Lord Jesus Christ that causes all things to adhere, and find their consistency.
