In this powerful message on John 15:16, we're challenged to bear fruit that remains. Jesus chose us for abundance, not just survival. The key to fruitfulness is abiding in Christ, like branches connected to the vine. We're called to love one another within the church as Christ loved us, which enables us to love those outside. This love, coupled with joyful service and a focus on seeking the lost, cultivates enduring faith. The cross is central to bearing lasting fruit - we must be willing to lose our lives to truly find them in Christ. As we abide in Him, our lives should show evidence through openness to God, consciousness of His presence, and victory over sin.
