Just before the
Passover festival

Jesus knew the

time had come
for him to leave
this world and to
the father

Having loved his

own who were in
the world he loved
them to the end
 Jesus says he is the true vine, and his father is the gardener
He cuts off every branch that does not have fruit

And every branch that does not have fruit he prunes

So, it will come back with even more fruit

Be a Christian

As the father has loved me, so have I loved you. Now remain in my
love (John 15:9)
