John 15:2-4

New Matthew Bible

² Every branch that does not bear fruit in me, he will take away. And every branch that bears fruit he will prune, so that it may bring forth more fruit. ³ Now you are clean through the words that I have spoken to you. ⁴ Abide in me, and let me abide in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, no more can you unless you abide in me.
