A statement from Jesus to His disciples and to the world that national Israel is not the true vine, ""I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser." (John 15:1 NKJV) ""Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit He takes away; and every branch that bears fruit He prunes, that it may bear more fruit." (John 15:2 NKJV) ""You are already clean because of the word which I have spoken to you." (John 15:3 NKJV) ""Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me." (John 15:4 NKJV) ""I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing." (John 15:5 NKJV) ""If anyone does not abide in Me, he is cast out as a branch and is withered; and they gather them and throw them into the fire, and they are burned." (John 15:6 NKJV)
