John 14, 15 [NIV Dramatized Audio]

Jesus warned, “Every branch (person in His Kingdom) who doesn’t bear fruit will be cut off.” Horrors! None of us wants that!

As believers, we need to get busy and bear fruit. I love to eat fruit. It’s generally sweet and since I’ve cut way back on my sugar, fruit fills a gap in my appetite. When we serve others or do deeds of Christian service, we are bearing fruit. As others taste the sweetness of our lives and acts of kindness, they will have also eaten the seeds that are contained in the fruit. In a sense, we are reproducing ourselves and the Life of Christ.

Men are known by their fruit. [Matt. 7:16, 20]
