Response Reading: 79. John 15
PRES: I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in him,
CONG: he will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.
PRES: If anyone does not remain in me, he is like a branch that is thrown away and withers;
CONG: such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned.
PRES: If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish,
CONG: and it will be given you.
PRES: This is to my Father's glory, that you bear much fruit.
CONG: showing yourselves to be my disciples.
PRES: "As the Father has loved me, so have I loved you.
CONG: Now remain in my love.
PRES: If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love,
CONG: just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and remain in his love,
CONG: I have told you this so that my jyo may be in you and that your joy may be complete.
