Please join us with Tim Irving for discussion of the Parable of the Vinedresser as delivered in Luke 20

Send us a textIn this passage of Scripture which many people have misinterpreted, we will see that Jesus is telling us that He is the true source of our spiritual and physical life. Acts 17:28 "for in Him we live and move and have our being, as also some of your own poets have said, 'For we are also His offspring.'  2Peter 1:3 as His divine power has given to us all things that pertain to life and godliness, through the knowledge of Him who called us by glory and virtue.  Jesus is the source of it all and the Father is the one who will do the cutting (chastising in our life) when it is needed.  The way a vine produces fruit is by cutting it back and it will produce more.  God does the same thing in our life when He cuts away those unnecessary things out of our life so we can continue to grow in the grace and the knowledge of the Lord Jesus Christ.  Jesus is talking about two groups of people here.  One is the true Christians who when they are cut on bear more fruit and the false Christians who never bear any fruit.  Mt 7:16 "You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thorn bushes or figs from thistles?  17 "Even so, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. 18 "A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. 19 "Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them. 21"Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 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.net https://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.

Title: Jesus Is the True VineMain Text: John 15:1-11Key Points:The Vine, the Vinedresser, and the BranchesJesus is the true vine, the Father is the gardener, and we are the branches.True believers bear fruit. Fruit doesn't lead to salvation—it proves salvation.There are two types of branches: those that bear fruit and are pruned, and those that bear no fruit and are cut off.Dead Branches: Divine JudgmentBranches that don't remain in Christ are thrown away, wither, and are burned (John 15:6).Dead branches drain life, invite disease, and block light and growth—for themselves and others.Judgment is not passive—it's just, and it reveals true spiritual condition.Fruitful Branches: Divine DisciplineGod prunes fruitful branches so they bear even more fruit.Pruning is painful, but it's an act of love that draws us deeper into dependence on Christ (Hebrews 12:6, 2 Corinthians 1:8-9).Spiritual growth often comes through trials.Abide in the VineRemain. Abide. Stay close. Jesus says, “Apart from me you can do nothing.”Remaining doesn't make you a disciple—it proves that you are one.If you were hurt in community, healing happens in community.Fruit = LoveJesus' command is clear: “Love one another as I have loved you.”His joy becomes our joy when we obey His commands and live a life marked by sacrifice and love.Final Question:Are you bearing fruit? What season are you in? The goal isn't to force fruit—it's to stay close to the vine.

Today, I'm reflecting on something we rarely think about—our eyes. Ever notice how they're designed to look outward, not inward? It's almost like we were made to focus on others—their needs, their goodness, and the beauty of God's creation. But too often, we get caught up in something else: seeing others' faults instead of our own. In today's episode, we wrestle with this tough reality and dive into Jesus' words that turn the mirror back on us. He calls us not to judge others, but to repent—to see our own sin, our own shortcomings, and our deep need for His mercy. But here's the good news: we are not cut down. Jesus, the true vine, took our place. He was cut down on the cross so that we might live, grow, and bear fruit in Him. So let's talk about what true repentance looks like—not just regret, but a life transformed. A life where we see others with compassion, where we trust in God's grace, and where we praise Him not just with words, but with lives of forgiveness and love.

In this powerful Lenten sermon on Luke 13:1-9, we explore Jesus' urgent call to repentance and the fruit that true repentance produces in our lives. As we journey through the Third Sunday in Lent, Christ reminds us that suffering is not always a sign of greater sin but a call for all to turn to Him in faith. The parable of the barren fig tree reveals God's patience and mercy, urging us not to delay in seeking forgiveness and renewal.Join us as we uncover how repentance is more than regret—it is a transformation that bears fruit in our daily lives. What does it mean to bear the fruit of repentance? How does Christ, our true Vinedresser, nourish and strengthen us through His Word and Sacraments? Discover the grace of God in the Lord's Supper and how we are called to live as faithful disciples in a fallen world.

How can we practice the presence of God? By abiding in the vine.The sermon today is titled "The Habit of Abiding in God." It is the sixth installment in our series "Follow Me", and the second in the sub-series "Be With Jesus." The Scripture reading is from John 15:1-11 (ESV).

Abide: The Vinedresser John 15:1-11 (CSB) Pastor Thomas Hwang

“I am the TRUE vine, and My Father is the Vinedresser.”John 15:1I believe that there is a grievous misunderstanding within the body at large about the reason our Messiah was sent here. Without this understanding, we can't truly know what it means to ”abide” in Him the way He instructs His disciples to as we continue to read through that passage in John 15. This deserves our attention, because He warns us that if we don't “abide” in Him, we will be likened to a branch that gets cut off and cast away. This is why we must understand how the branches were broken off to begin with. Broken branches in Scripture is symbolic to a broken covenant. Without this understanding, we cannot understand how the covenant was renewed through our Messiah. He didn't replace His Father's covenant—He renewed it. He came to atone for sin, yes, but the true gospel message is SO much deeper than that. He came to renew the covenant, in which He made a way for both natural and wild branches to be restored. This is why He says “I am the TRUE Vine” now. But out of all things, why would our Messiah use the imagery of a vine and a vineyard in His instructions and parables? Because He was/is teaching from the Scriptures. He is bringing to mind the prophecy that points us to Him. If you are wondering, “what prophecy?” then I encourage you to tap in to Episode 27. In order to understand the back of the Book, we have to have a foundation in the Tanakh—what people refer to as “Old” Testament. It is truly amazing how much Scripture can bring so much revelation and clarity to just one short verse in John 15:1.

Our wise and loving Father knows precisely what to prune, when to prune, and how to prune things from our lives so that we can bear just the right amount and type of fruit He intends.

The parable of the barren fig tree captures the attributes of our Vinedresser Father.  He is focused, patient, determined, protective, and longsuffering, willing to do all He can so that we'll bear fruit.

This week Margaux's friend and fellow podcaster, Megan Nilsen, is joining us for a live dream interpretation, where God emphasizes a common theme through a series of curious dreams. These dreams highlight God's preeminence and power, accentuating that He is the one who goes before all things, providing the grace needed for 'impossible' situations and miracles.If you've been tracking with us for any length of time, you've likely heard us go through these key questions while interpreting a dream: When did you have the dream? Title of the dream, if you were to give it one. Emotions: mostly positive or negative?As we interpret the dreams, Megan also shares her metamorphosis—from living one way to discovering what it truly means to yield to God as the Vinedresser and experience the fruit of His handiwork. Check out the full episode to hear Megan's powerful story of letting go of the flesh and embracing the joy and whimsy of the Spirit—and discover how you can experience your own transformation!*Scripture References: Luke 2:52; Isaiah 43:19; John 15:1-8; Zechariah 4:6“The Spirit of God is the X Factor that you can't predict; you can prophesy it, but you can't micromanage it. It happens or it doesn't happen.”“When we're processing our own dream, God is speaking to us about our life. We don't need someone else to be an expert on our life, no one else can be. Sometimes another person coming in helps break patterns we get into in our minds…having someone else come in and ask those questions gives more space and permission for you to dig into what's happening.”Megan's Website: https://meganbnilsen.com/Healing The Soul Through God Encounters LINKMore on Breathing Underwater Membership HERENeed help discerning God's voice?

I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser. – John 15:1

If we are going to grow spiritually, THEN it is imperative we learn to “abide” in Christ! Most people who go adrift in their lives do so because they lose an abiding relationship with the Lord. He is no longer the center of their life, and they’ve thrown away their anchor. They begin to drift in the winds and current of this world system and ultimately they cannot discern right from wrong. In his epistle, the apostle John identifies three anchors of our abiding that will keep us from drifting away. We are to abide (be anchored) in the Word, we are abide (be anchored) in the Anointing, and we are to abide (be anchored) in Him – Christ!

The Vinedresser (Luke 13:1-9)

The Old Testament talked about the Jewish people as the vine and God as the Vinedresser.  They saw their connection to God in their identity, land, and function.  Jesus shook the culture by calling himself the True Vine and only path to the Father God. We can't rely on our identity, someone else's beliefs, or where we come from to get us closer to God. Jesus is still the one True Vine.Watch the message at: https://abundant.church/resources/sermons/

Are you spiritually parched? If so, this revelatory sermon could be the spiritual kickstart you need. Drawing from Jesus' powerful vineyard teachings in John 15, Pastor Rex guides you on an imagination-sparking journey toward abundant life and Christlike character. Forget surface-level Christianity - the pastor dynamically redefines "fruitfulness" as the full, moment-by-moment expression of Jesus' nature through your thoughts, attitudes and actions. It's an eye-opening new paradigm that could reset your spiritual compass. From this robust foundation, you'll explore the four key scenarios Jesus outlined regarding spiritual growth and productivity: No Fruit Fruit More Fruit Much Fruit Which one most resonates with your walk today? Pastor Rex paints a breathtaking picture of the "much fruit" life exemplified by love, joy, peace and purpose spilling from every area. But how do you escape stagnation and venture into those lush vineyards of abundant fruitfulness? Get ready to be realigned as the pastor unpacks three essential principles: 1) How God's uncomfortable DISCIPLINE rouses you from seasons of fruitlessness through striking vineyard illustrations. 2) When you're bearing some fruit already, how the Vinedresser's PURPOSEFUL PRUNING ushers fresh intimacy and spiritual impact. 3) For the fruitful, how God beckons you into ever DEEPER awakenings of abiding in Christ's presence and power. From convicting personal accounts of God's pruning...to startling revelations about what "fruit" truly involves...to uplifting visions of overflowing spiritual passion - this sermon will shake up your ideas about flourishing as a branch. Whether you've grown disillusioned by fruitless patterns after decades of church...or you're a new believer sensing God's pruning hand in recent trials...this message could mark your pivotal turn back toward flourishing in Christ in powerful new ways. After all, a withered, anemic spiritual life was never your created purpose. Yet vines often lie choked and drained by lesser priorities or lack of deep soul-abiding with the Vinedresser. This sermon is a summons away from spiritual shriveling toward bearing glorious fruit that shines a beacon to Christ's splendor. So if your soul's crying yes to new awakenings, fresh nourishment, and blossoming transformation - or if you simply need re-centered on the True Vine - then don't miss this landmark message. It could catalyze you into unprecedented domains of abundant fruitfulness. We pray this message from April 14, 2024 will bless you!!

Pastor Darrell Jones discusses John 15:2 this morning.

Jesus' blood is stronger than sin! When we repent and allow the compassionate Vinedresser to lift us into the light, we begin to bear much fruit. He knows the best conditions for us to walk in fruitfulness, and it's our joy to submit to His leadership and allow Him to prune our lives!Josh Krehbiel // ABIDE PT 3

The only way we can ever choose God is because He chose us first before the foundation of the world. He chose the elect not based on any merit of ourselves, but rather according to the kind intention of His will, to the praise of the glory of His grace. All those who are chosen are called friends of God as Christ has laid down His life for them and revealed Himself to them. We are to follow Christ's example and love others as He has loved us as love for the brethren is a sign of regeneration and abiding in the Vine. Those who have been chosen by the Vinedresser and planted into the True Vine have been appointed to bear fruit and that fruit will remain as our union with the Vine is eternal! How amazing it is that the reason we have eternal life is because of the grace, mercy, and the sovereign choice of the Vinedresser! 

By the mercy and grace of God the Father, the Vinedresser we have been joined to the true Vine, Jesus. It only through our union with Jesus, the true Vine that we can produce any fruit that is pleasing to God. For those who are not “in Christ” they produce no fruit pleasing to God and will be gathered one day to be burned in the lake of fire forever. The branches that are in the true Vine are being pruned to produce more fruit and will spend eternity with the true Vine, the Vinedresser, and the Holy Spirit forever. Let us never once boast in ourselves, but rather let us give glory to God and God alone because just as Jesus stated we can do nothing without Him!

This past year we gathered for a one day conference with pastors and leaders from across North America, collaborating with our friends at Practicing The Way. Together, we engaged in meaningful discussions on spiritual formation within the context of the local church. This full day gathering consisted of teaching and dialogue from John Mark Comer, Ken Shigematsu, Tyler Staton, and Elita Friesen. Elita closed the conference with a beautiful message on abiding in Christ, sharing that as we lead people to a deepening relationship with God we ourselves would abide deeply in Jesus. We hope this message gives you hope and a renewed vision to abide in Jesus as we move into 2024. Bio | Elita Friesen is a writer and Bible teacher and has served in various ministry capacities for the last 10 years. She currently serves on the teaching and pastoral team at The Way Church, a church with locations in both Vancouver and North Vancouver.
