Jesus
said to his disciples: "I am the true vine, and my Father is the vine
grower. He takes away every branch in me that does not bear fruit, and everyone
that does he prunes so that it bears more fruit. You are already pruned because
of the word that I spoke to you. Remain in me, as I remain in you. Just as a
branch cannot bear fruit on its own unless it remains on the vine, so neither
can you unless you remain in me. I am the vine, you are the branches. Whoever
remains in me and I in him will bear much fruit, because without me you can do
nothing. Anyone who does not remain in me will be thrown out like a branch and
wither; people will gather them and throw them into a fire and they will be
burned. If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask for whatever you
want and it will be done for you. By this is my Father glorified, that you bear
much fruit and become my disciples."
Pamalandong:
Bagan
waya’y lamang balor nan sanga para dato mga Habunganon kay amo man ini an ato
pangahujon para gamiton nato sa pag-sun’ad.
Pero para
sa kinabuhi nan mga Jew, an sanga, may dako na meaning kay duro man an ila mga
vineyard didto hilabina sa house of Israel.
Ugsa na
ang tawag ni Jesus Dija, true vine, na buot ipasabot na sa Ija ra gajod moagi
an pagka-malambuon nan espirituwal na kinabuhi nan tawo.
Si Jesus
ra an maka-offer nan tinuod na kinabuhi – puno na kinabuhi gikan kan God na
mag-resulta nan pagka-malambuon.
Amo na kinahanglang
kita tabasan o i-prune para mabungahon kita sa ato mga kinabuhi na espirituwal.
