John 15

1I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine dresser.
2Every branch in me that bears not fruit he takes away: and every branch that bears fruit, he prunes it, that it may bring forth more fruit.
3Now you are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you.
4Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can you, except you abide in me.
5I am the vine, you are the branches: He that abides in me, and I in him, the same brings forth much fruit: for without me you can do nothing.
6If a man abides 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.
7If you abide in me, and my words abide in you, you shall ask what you will, and it shall be done unto you.
8In this is my Father glorified, that you bear much fruit; so shall you be my disciples.
9As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you: continue you in my love.
10If you keep my commandments, you shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
11These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full.
12This is my commandment, That you love one another, as I have loved you.
13Greater love has no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
14You are my friends, if you do whatsoever I command you.
15From now on I call you not servants; for the servant knows not what his lord does: but I have called you friends; for all things that I have heard of my Father I have made known unto you.
16You have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that you should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever you shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it to you.
17These things I command you, that you love one another.
18If the world hates you, you know that it hated me before it hated you.
19If you were of the world, the world would love its own: but because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you.
20Remember the word that I said unto you, The servant is not greater than his lord. If they have persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they have kept my saying, they will keep yours also.
21But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me.
22If I had not come and spoken unto them, they would not have sin: but now they have no cover for their sin.
23He that hates me hates my Father also.
24If I had not done among them the works which no other man did, they would not have sin: but now have they both seen and hated both me and my Father.
25But this comes to pass, that the word might be fulfilled that is written in their law, They hated me without a cause.
26But when the Comforter is come, whom I will send unto you from the Father, even the Spirit of truth, who proceeds from the Father, he shall testify of me:
27And you also shall bear witness, because you have been with me from the beginning.
