*I AM the True Vine*
John 15:1-8
 
*Review & Context*
 
*V.
1—I Am the True Vine*
Ø  The Vine is a common symbol of Israel
Ø  Jesus states that He is the TRUE Vine meaning that there must be a false vine.
*READ Is. 5:1-7* =       Describes the state of Israel before the Messiah had come.
Ø  *In his statement, Jesus is proclaiming to be the very embodiment of Israel.
Not just a duplication of the Vine, but as the TRUE or PERFECTED Vine!*
 
Ø  As the Savior, Jesus is so representative of Israel that he is identified as being the SAME AS Israel!
Ø  *Everything that was wrong with Israel is now right in Christ!*
 
*V.
2-3—The Pruning Process*
Ø  Jesus here is giving us an illustration of the church.
*/Within the walls there are 3 groups of people: Christians, those who think they are, those who know they aren’t.
Jesus is speaking to the first 2 groups./*
Ø  The necessity of Pruning—If you don’t prune it will reduce your harvest
 
 
 
 
*V.
4—How to Bear Fruit*
Ø  *It is only by remaining attached to the Vine that the Branches can continue to live!*
Ø  What is this Fruit?
*Show slide*
Ø  What does it mean to “Remain” It is a very powerful word in the Greek.
It means to maintain on constant connection.
Almost like an umbilical cord.
Ø  Once that connection is broken you are good for nothing more than firewood.
*V.
5-8—Those who remain and Those who Don’t *
Ø  *Notice who it is that is producing the Fruit, IT IS CHRIST IN YOU! (v.
5)*
 
Ø  He goes on to say that apart from him you can do nothing!
Ø  Compare v. 7 with the end of v. 5—if we are remaining in Christ our thoughts and desires will resemble his so much that whatever we ask for we will receive.
Ø  *V.
8—We often seem to down play the idea of Good Works.
Good works is NOT the way that we are saved.
But we were saved FOR Good Works (Eph.
2:8-10)*
 
*/INVITATION/**/: I want to invite you tonight to abide with Jesus.
To begin a relationship with the man who rescued you from your sin.
AND, I am challenging you to cultivate 1 spiritual fruit in your life this week./*
