John 15:1 "I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser.

2 Every branch of mine that bears no fruit, he takes away, and


every branch that does bear fruit he prunes, that it may bear more
fruit. 3 You are already made clean by the word which I have
spoken to you. 4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot
bear fruit by 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, he it is that bears much fruit,
for apart from me you can do nothing. 6 If a man does not abide
in me, he is cast forth as a branch and withers; and the branches
are gathered, thrown into the fire and burned. 7 If you abide in
me, and my words abide in you, ask whatever you will, and it shall
be done for you. 8 By this my Father is glorified, that you
bear much fruit, and so prove to be my disciples. 9 As the
Father has loved me, so have I loved you; abide in my love. 10 If
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
These things I have spoken to you, that my joy may be in you,
and that your joy may be full. 12 "This is my commandment, that
you love one another as I have loved you.

MODERN VERSION OF PSALM 23
•The T.V. is my shepherd, my spiritual growth
shall want.
•It makes me sit down and do nothing for the
cause of Christ because it requires all my
spare time.
•It keeps me from doing my duty as a Christian
because it presents so many good programs
that I must see.
•It restores my knowledge of the things of the
world. It keeps me from studying God’s Word.
•It leads me into the paths of failure to attend
the worship services and doings of the
Kingdom of God. Yes! Though I live to be a
hundred, I shall keep on viewing my T.V. as
long as it will work. For my T.V. is my close
companion, its sound and picture they comfort
me.
•It preserves entertainment before me and
keeps me from doing important things with my
family. It fills my head with ideas which differ
from those set forth in the Word of God.
•Surely no good thing will come of my life
because my T.V. offers me no time to do the
will of God and I will dwell in spiritual poverty
for ever.
Beatitudes of the Devil
Blessed are those who are
too tiered & busy to go to
Church on Sunday,
For they are my best
workers.

Blessed are those who are


bored with the minister’s
mannerism and mistakes,
for they get nothing out of
the sermon.
Blessed are those who
gossip, for they cause
strife & division that
please me.

Blessed are those are


easily offended, for
they soon get angry
and quit.
Blessed are those who
profess to love
God, but hate their own
brother or sister, for
they will be with me
forever.

Blessed are the


troublemakers, for they
shall be called the
children of the devil.
Blessed is he
or she, who
has no time to
pray, for that
person shall
be easy prey.
