In John 15, Jesus teaches us the secrets of the vine. In verse 5, He says, “I am the vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in Me and I in him produces much fruit, because you can do nothing without Me.” (John 15:5, CSB) This passage is often taught as if there is only one condition for fruit bearing: remaining in Jesus. But notice that there are two conditions to growth and change here, not just one. There is remaining in Jesus, and then there is Jesus remaining in us. Said another way, Christian growth is is a combination of doing two things at once. We grow and bear fruit by resting in Jesus (Christ in me) while also chasing after Jesus (Remaining in Christ). Join us this weekend as we discuss the secret to growth and change, and notice it has everything to do with remaining or abiding in Jesus as He abides in us.
