For the weapons of our warfare are not fleshly, but inherent ability by the God facing destruction of strongholds, while pulling down reasonings and every high thing lifted up against the knowledge of the God, and while taking captive every thought into the obedience of the Christ,
If, perhaps, you remain in Me, and My utterances remain in you, that which if perhaps you desire you will ask and it will come to be for you. By this My father will be glorified in order that you should bear more fruit and you will be My disciples. Just as the Father loves Me, I also love you. Abide in My love. If, perhaps, you guard My commandments you will abide in My love just as I guarded My Father’s commandments and abide in His love. These things I have said to you in order that My joy should remain among you and your joy should be filled up. This is My commandment, in order that you should love one another just as I have loved you. Greater love no one has in order that he should lay down his soul concerning his friends. You are My friends, if, perhaps, you do as much as I command you.I do not any longer say you slaves, because the slave does not know what his lord does, but I have said you friends because all which I heard from My Father I made known to you.
Abide in Me and I in you. Just as the branch does not have the natural ability to bear fruit from itself, except it remain in the vine, thus you do not except you abide in Me. I am the vine and you are the branches. The one abiding in Me, just as I in Him, this one bears more fruit because apart from Me you are not inherently able to do anything.
