John 15:1-4 CSB – “I am the true vine, and my Father is the gardener. Every branch in me that does not produce fruit he removes, and he prunes every branch that produces fruit so that it will produce more fruit.

Just as a branch is unable to produce fruit by itself unless it remains on the vine, neither can you unless you remain in me.’
