John 15:5
[5] I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in
him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do
nothing. (ESV)

III. The Fruitfulness of Abiding
• Hebrews 2:1 Therefore we must pay much closer attention to
what we have heard, lest we drift away from it. (ESV)
• Hebrews 10:23 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope
without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. (ESV)
We abide…
1. …by having his Word abide in us.
2. …through depending on him in prayer.
