summary

You have heard many voices in the world around you. The world wants to pull you away from God and tell you that what His word says isn’t true. There’s an easy way to keep from being deceived, though. Live in Him. That’s the secret. Stay attached to Him. John wrote about a metaphor Jesus gave His disciples in his gospel. He told them He was the vine and those that follow Him are the branches. If you do not produce fruit, the Father, the keeper of the vineyard cuts those branches from the vine and burns them in the fire. He prunes the branches to make sure they produce good fruit.

The point is when His followers stay connected to Him, they produce good fruit. They grow and the Father is pleased with them. When not connected with Him, the branches soon wither, die, and are destroyed. So live in Christ. Stay connected. Stay in His word. Pray. Study. Meditate on His word. Listen to Him. Do what He ask. Live in Him.
