Jesus said to his disciples:“As the Father loves me, so I also love you.Remain in my love.If you keep my commandments, you will remain in my love,just as I have kept my Father's commandmentsand remain in his love.“I have told you this so that my joy might be in youand your joy might be complete.This is my commandment: love one another as I love you.No one has greater love than this,to lay down one's life for one's friends.You are my friends if you do what I command you.I no longer call you slaves,because a slave does not know what his master is doing.I have called you friends,because I have told you everything I have heard from my Father.It was not you who chose me, but I who chose youand appointed you to go and bear fruit that will remain,so that whatever you ask the Father in my name he may give you.This I command you: love one another.”

May 11, 2025 — This Morning Senior Pastor Rob Ginter preached a sermon “The Life of the Vine is Mine-Part 1” John 15: 1-11
Send us a textJohn 15:4 "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. 5 "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. 6 "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. 7 "If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you. 8 "By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples. In this wonderful section of Scripture we will see that unless we abide we can nothing that God has ordained for us to do. I believe abide first of all means we are saved if we abide in Him and He abides in us, Romans 8:9, John 14:20, 17:23. Then, when we are filled with the Spirit we bear much fruit. Being filled with the Spirit is talked about in Eph 5:9, 5:18-21, and Col 3:16-23. If we are not saved we are unable to do anything that is a supernatural God work. In other words, if you are saved you know that before you were saved you were unable to change and get rid of those sin areas in your life that plagued you. You also now have an ability to live for God and also do great works in His name (see Mt 5:16, Eph 3:20). The Fruit of the Spirit is spoken of in Gal 5:22, but it also is shown in the passages above where Paul says it will be shown by;1. Speaking about the Word of God (What dominates your thought life)2. Singing and Making Melody in your Heart (Joy) 3. Thankfulness 4. Being Submissive to God and Others in your household and your workplace and treating others like they should be treated.5. It also will glorify God Mark 8:36 "For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. Have you trusted Him as your Savior? He can Save you if You ask Him based on His death, burial, and resurrection for your sins. Believe in Him for forgiveness of your sins today. “And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” -John 8:32 Our mission is to spread the gospel and to go to the least of these with the life-changing message of Jesus Christ; We reach out to those the World has forgotten. hisloveministries.podbean.com #HLMSocial hisloveministries.nethttps://www.instagram.com/hisloveministries1/?hl=en His Love Ministries on Itunes Don't go for all the gusto you can get, go for all the God (Jesus Christ) you can get.

Send us a textGood morning! Thank you for taking a few minutes to listen. If you are interested in the Daily Bible Devotional, you can find it at the links below:Amazon - (paperback, hardcover, and Kindle)Spiritbuilding.com - (premium quality paperback)Youtube Video Introducing the ContentFeel free to reach out with any questions: emersonk78@me.comJohn 15 Jesus continues His discourse with the Apostles. Jesus identifies Himself as “the true vine.” His followers are like branches that draw nutrients from Him. To “abide in Him” is to be connected to Jesus, to hear His words, and to gain strength from His power. This must result in good fruit born by the branches. To bear the fruit of good works is to prove to be His disciple. Love binds the Vine to the branches. Jesus has shown His love by laying down His life for His friends. His friends show love in return by keeping His commandments and loving one another. The world hates Jesus and His followers, but love will define His people. Jesus again promises the Apostles that the Holy Spirit will help them in their work. As noted in the previous chapter, some of this content is unique to the Apostles. The Holy Spirit would testify through the Apostles in miraculous ways. The Holy Spirit is also at work for us; He teaches us through the scripture. Many other elements of this chapter apply to us all. Jesus is the vine, and we are the branches. We must remain connected to Him and bear fruit, lest we be cut away by the Father. Specifically, Jesus demands that we keep His commandments and love our fellow believers. We will be maligned by the world for serving Jesus because people of the world reject His Lordship. But fellow Christians should always be a source of love and support. Creator God, we know that You have made us to bring honor to You. And that means living obedient lives and loving others the way You love us. Will You help us see how desperately we need Jesus to do these things? Show us how to connect to Jesus and how to draw our strength and direction from Him. We are committed to bearing the good fruit of obedience and love in a world of disobedience and hate. Show us how to love Christians in an enduring way, and please help us through the presence and teachings of Your Holy Spirit. Thought Questions: - Are you abiding in Christ and bearing fruit through His strength? What examples in your life demonstrate this process to others? - The Lord has commanded us to love one another. Can your faith be a saving faith if you do not actively love and serve Christians? - The worldly have no excuse for living in sin and disregarding the King. How can you help them see their need for Jesus?
In the fifteenth chapter of John's gospel, we learn more about the work of the Holy Spirit in us. And the power of the Holy Spirit to take God's word and make it alive in the hearts of those we are seeking to reach. The Holy Spirit will testify of Jesus!
We all want to be liked by those around us, and some of us will say and do just about anything to make that happen. But if you're a Christian, and living like one, you will be hated. Jesus told us that, but He also told us that if we abide in Him, then all the world's hate cannot harm us!
Kevin Vantongeren's Sermon on John 15:1-3, from April 27, 2025.
Today on Bridging the Gap, we study John's gospel. We're in chapter fifteen, where we're urged by the Lord to abide in God's love. The world is going to be against you, the moment you declare your allegiance to Christ.
We are back in John this week on the topic of persecution and opposition in the Christian walk. There will always be trials in our lives, as Jesus said "If the world hates you, know that it hated me first." John 15:18. But Jesus promised to be with us always, and has given us power to resist and overcome temptation. Feeling tempted isn't a sin - it's how you respond to that temptation!
Bryson Thomas, Pastor of Del Ray Baptist Church
This week, we examine verses 12 through 17 and discuss how love for Jesus affects Christians' love for one another.
We're told in the Bible that what a man desires is unfailing love. Many today are searching for unfailing love, but are looking in all the wrong places for it. Today, Lloyd points out a few distinct aspects of God's love - which is certainly unfailing. The first characteristic is that it originates with Him. So, join us in John chapter fifteen, as we discover how to abide in God's love.
We're in the midst of a verse by verse study through John's gospel, and we've landed in chapter fifteen today. In this chapter, Jesus explains to His apostles the nature of His relationship with the Father and, in doing so, reveals the ideal relationship between the Father and us. We are the branches and Jesus is the true vine. Just exactly what does that mean, and how can we pout those words into action in our lives?

If you have young children, I'm sure you're amazed at how quickly they grow. You might also do what many parents do - keep track of their growth with a mark on a wall. That's a good gauge of physical growth, but what about spiritual growth? Join us now in John chapter fifteen as we discover the dynamics of spiritual growth, as we abide in Jesus.

Hey kids! In today's episode, we're diving into one of Jesus' most amazing word pictures yet — the vine and the branches!
This week we examine Jesus' words in John 15:6-11 and discuss the meaning of "abiding" in Christ.
Fr. Mike points out the secrecy in Judas' life, and highlights Jesus' words of conviction to the disciples before his death on the cross. He also explains how important it is to bring Jesus into our temptation, and to not hide our hearts from him like Judas did. Today's readings are John 13-15 and Proverbs 6:6-11.
