Jesus the True Vine
1“I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinegrower. 2He removes every branch in me that bears no fruit. Every branch that bears fruit he prunes#15.2 The same Greek root refers to pruning and cleansing to make it bear more fruit. 3#Jn 13.10; 17.17; Eph 5.26You have already been cleansed#15.3 The same Greek root refers to pruning and cleansing by the word that I have spoken to you. 4#1 Jn 2.6Abide in me as I abide in you. Just as the branch cannot bear fruit by itself unless it abides in the vine, neither can you unless you abide in me. 5I am the vine; you are the branches. Those who abide in me and I in them bear much fruit, because apart from me you can do nothing. 6Whoever does not abide in me is thrown away like a branch and withers; such branches are gathered, thrown into the fire, and burned. 7#Jn 14.13; 16.23If you abide in me and my words abide in you, ask for whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. 8#Mt 5.16; Jn 8.31My Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit and become#15.8 Or be my disciples. 9As the Father has loved me, so I have loved you; abide in my love. 10#v 23If you keep my commandments, you will abide in my love, just as I have kept my Father’s commandments and abide in his love. 11#Jn 17.13I have said these things to you so that my joy may be in you and that your joy may be complete.

Jn 13.34
“This is my commandment, that you love one another as I have loved you. 13#Jn 10.11; Rom 5.7, 8No one has greater love than this, to lay down one’s life for one’s friends. 14#Mt 12.50You are my friends if you do what I command you. 15I do not call you servants#15.15 Gk slaves any longer, because the servant#15.15 Gk slave does not know what the master is doing, but I have called you friends, because I have made known to you everything that I have heard from my Father. 16#Jn 6.70; 14.13You did not choose me, but I chose you. And I appointed you to go and bear fruit, fruit that will last, so that the Father will give you whatever you ask him in my name. 17I am giving you these commands so that you may love one another.
The World’s Hatred

1 Jn 3.13
“If the world hates you, be aware that it hated me before it hated you. 19If you belonged to the world, the world would love you as its own. Because you do not belong to the world, but I have chosen you out of the world, therefore the world hates you. 20#Mt 10.24; Lk 6.40; Jn 13.16Remember the word that I said to you, ‘Slaves are not greater than their master.’ If they persecuted me, they will persecute you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also. 21#Mt 12.24; Lk 6.40; Jn 13.16But they will do all these things to you on account of my name, because they do not know him who sent me. 22#Jn 9.41; Rom 1.20If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not have sin, but now they have no excuse for their sin. 23#1 Jn 2.23Whoever hates me hates my Father also. 24#Jn 5.36If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not have sin. But now they have seen and hated both me and my Father. 25#Ps 35.19; 69.4It was to fulfill the word that is written in their law, ‘They hated me without a cause.’
