Abiding in Jesus to Bear Much Fruit John 15:4-5 Abiding in Jesus to Bear Much Fruit 4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. 5 I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing.
