And HOW WE DO IT(REMAIN IN THE VINE)
Jesus is the vine. (source of life)
The Father is the gardener. (Judge)
We are branches. We will either be pruned (to grow) or cut off and thrown out/burned.

Christ in us is the source of our "fruit"
WE >> Remain in Christ.
HIS WORDS >> remain in us.
>> We BEAR FRUIT.
>> SHOW OURSELVES TO BE JESUS' DISCIPLES.
>>> GLORIFY THE FATHER.

If we do anything of value (bear fruit) it is because of the GRACE of God and the work of CHRIST IN US.
THE COMMAND: LOVE EACH OTHER
Obey the commands: bear much fruit.
Be His disciples.
These are again, the GREATEST COMMANDMENTS and THE GREAT COMMISSION

WE MUST ABIDE IN GOD'S LOVE.

https://www.biblestudytools.com/BAPTISM
Are you ready to be baptized? In the Bible, when people come to faith in Christ, and they ask "what do I do now?" the answer is consistently baptism. In baptism, we identify with Jesus' death, burial, and resurrection as we lay down our lives in the water, and come to new life in Christ. If you believe Jesus is Lord and are ready to make that declaration in your life, sign up and we would love to baptize you.
