John 15, Lord’s farewell address John 14:30 John 15:1-8, personal faithfulness  15:1, Vine could be connected with... Fruit of vine, Mt.26:29 Fruit of vine, Mt.26:29 Temple decoration Mt. Olivet vineyard OT: true vine is not apostate Israel. Ps.80:7-8…14-17 OT: true vine is not apostate Israel. Ps.80:7-8…14-17

I. Landscape, Jn.15:1-8

Provision, 1 vinevinedresser True vine... Father is vinedresser Not a hireling (hired hand, doesn’t care) Not a Pharaoh (unreasonable demands)

Provision, 1 Peril, 2 Branches: individuals (5-6) Prunes: pres. tense Purpose: More (5, 8, 16)

Provision, 1; Peril, 2 Purity, 3-4 Clean Clean because of the word Abide in Me... I in you (6, 7, 9, 10)

Provision, 1; Peril, 2; Purity, 3-4 Production, 5 Much fruit W/o Me, nothing. Ep.2:12

Provision, 1; Peril, 2; Purity, 3-4; Production, 5 Position/practice, 6-7 Abide in Him, 6 Let word abide in us, 7 Their prayer is His teaching transformed into supplication Their prayer is His teaching transformed into supplication

Provision, 1; Peril, 2; Purity, 3-4; Production, 5 Position/practice, 6-7 Purpose, 8 Glorify our Father By good works, Mt.5:16 By much fruit, Jn.15:8

I. Landscape, Jn.15:1-10 II. Lessons

1. God is lavish (Jn.10:10) We respond w. fruit  Is.5:1-7  Mt.21:33-44  Lk.13:6-9 God spared no expense They were takers, not givers

2. Power of Word, 3, 7 My words (7) make up the word (3) Prunes fruitless & fruitful branches The Word (pruning shears) Means (v.3) Means (v.7) To clean fruitless / fruitful To bear Mt.13:8, 23

3. In Christ, the true vine, 4-5 OT references: Israel failed as vine John’s lightJn.1:9True light MannaJn.6:32True manna VineJn.15:1True vine

In Me (15:4, 5, 6, 7) By baptism believers are removed from the sphere of the first Adam…that of sin and death, into the sphere of the second Adam…that of righteousness and life (TDNT) Past: in sin (Ro.6:1; 7:17) Now: walk in light (1 Jn.1:6-7) Past: in sin (Ro.6:1; 7:17) Now: walk in light (1 Jn.1:6-7)

In Me, cont’d in Business deal: “I’m in” into “He’s into magic / weird music…” Close pers. relation in which the referent of the ‘in’-term is viewed as the controlling influence: under the control of, under the influence of… (BDAG) Supports w. money, time, influence, etc.

He will not stay in filth The Word prunes bad habits Mind Pr.4:23 Gaze Mt.5:28 Touch 2 Sm.13 Speech Ep.4:29

4. Bear much fruit, 5 Fruit: what something naturally produces Apple tree Grass Seed Grass Seed Young mother Branch In Him? Branch In Him?

►Repentance, Mt.3:8 Men = trees Consequences of barrenness: Pharisees & Sadducees

►Behavior, Ga.5:22-23 Seen in our attitudes & actions Gal.5:19-21, fleshGal.5:22-23, spirit 13, flesh opportunity14, love neighbor 15, consumed by hate16, walk by Spirit 17, fleshly desires18, led by Spirit

►Praise & practice, Hb.13:15-16 Ho.14:2, fruit of lips Hb.7:27 Jesus Offered up Life Hb.7:27 Jesus Offered up Life Hb.13:15-16 Christian Offer up Praise/practice Hb.13:15-16 Christian Offer up Praise/practice

Hb.13:5-6, we offer Through Him (our altar, 10) 2. Continually. Ep.5:20 3. Sacrificially. Costly, inconvenient… Dn.6 4. Thankfully. Confess, acknowledge 5. Doing good, sharing Work Teach Seek lost

5. Possibility of apostasy, 6. “If anyone…” 1. Not abide in Me: can leave Him (4-7). 2. Cast out of Christ. Still saved? Ga.5:4. 3. Withered. No longer receiving living sap. 4. Gathered, thrown into fire, burned (Mt.13:41-42). Saved?

One Judas is enough Jn.13:2, 26-27; 17:12; Ac.1:25 If apostles could fall, what of us?

6. How to glorify God, 8 Is God’s craving for worship like a vain woman who wants compliments?  Enjoyment naturally overflows into praise and imitation

7. How to be a disciple, 8 Lit., become A Christian never arrives in this life; always ‘becoming’ (Ph.3) Fruitfulness proves discipleship

People see branches before the Vine What do they see in me? Sour grape? Prickly pear? Bitter olive? Artificial fruit? Sweet melon? Fuzzy peach? Delicious apple? Healing aloe vera?
