Jesus Is: The True Vine
Scripture: John 15:1
READ: John 15
*THE TRUE VINE*
TRUE – Alethia –well in this here it is alethine Adjective-NomitiveFirstPersonSingular, but you don’t need to know that…. from last week, alaithia means Reality, or Ideal as in a perfect reality…..
VINE --- ámpelos ("vine") is also used symbolically of Christless Judaism and apostate Christianity (Rev 14:18,10), i.e. the (external) religious body of people which merely pretends to bear fruit but is in fact fruitless. Only Christ Himself is the true Vine, in whom the people of God are formed…
*Romans 11:11-28 ---- *
We are to receive Jesus altogether. It will not do to take what we like and reject what we don’t like.
There must be constant communion. This is the first act of real prayer. No Communion means a prayerless life, which means a life without Christ WORKING in it, a life without Christ working will lead to a life without consistent faith, On such a branch the husbandman (God the Father) looks with suspicion. Does He give the fullness to the one who isn’t fully invested?
*Matthew 5:48* “Be ye therefore perfect, even as your Father which is in heaven is perfect.”---- teleios --- complete the cycle
*My challenge to you is to be in Constant Communion with Jesus this week.*
