Hello you,

This was made for you in mind~! It is a informational video about abiding in the vine and believe that if you pay attention it will help you understand what it is like to abide in the vine of Christ Jesus with our Father as the Gardener! Be encouraged friend and may the grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with you and your family.

Went and made this video this morning: Using the material that is written below however the above video is for you and an in-depth of look from my own experience of what abiding in the vine looks like.

John 15; Naturally the abiding in the vine which was discussed by Jesus Christ.

“I am the true vine, and My Father is the gardener. 2 Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit, He trims so that it may bear more fruit. 3 You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. 4 Abide in Me, and I will abide in you. The branch cannot itself produce fruit, unless it abides on the vine. Likewise, you cannot produce fruit unless you abide in Me.

Jesus is the vine in which was abide in as a believers. If you are a believer and have received the Spirit of Adoption you are a Child of God/ Son or Daughter. In your heart you know that you have received the spirit; because you have been changed, in which you call out to the Father in heaven who takes care of us.

The thing to note here is that you are the branch. Branches do nothing except receive the nutrition from the vine. The vine being the Lord Jesus Christ; the everlasting waters, and the everlasting bread of life.

This is the point. As a person who is a believer; there is nothing good that comes from us still as human beings but being born again by receiving the spirit of adoption which is from God by your own choice of accepting the good news Gospel; the good that you will do that comes from with-in your heart will be coming from God through the spirit of Christ in you himself.

The spirit that you receive causes you to have love; for all people.
To have patience, to have kindness, to have gentleness, to have forgiveness, to have mercy, to have forbearance, to have longsuffering, to yield to the vine allowing the Father to prune you in your walk through difficult trials that may come about in your life; allowing your character to endure, and to become more equipped to abide in the vine and abide in the holy spirit that has been given to you by and through your faith.

You read faith without works is dead then you start working yourself and stop letting God do the work of the works that He will perform through you, by faith and abiding in the vine of the Lord Jesus Christ, who came and lived, died, was buried and was raised again by God, that we can be resurrected into the newness of life by dying with Christ, being spiritually reborn again.
