  1. The Meaning and Mission of Fruitbearing John 15:1-17

  2. What is the Meaning of Fruitbearing Is it the fruit of the Holy Spirit? Gal 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,

  3. What is the Meaning of Fruitbearing Is it the fruit of evangelism? Luke 19:10 "For the Son of Man has come to seek and to save that which was lost." 1 Tim. 1:15 It is a trustworthy statement, deserving full acceptance, that Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners, among whom I am foremost of all. Act 20:24 "But I do not consider my life of any account as dear to myself, so that I may finish my course and the ministry which I received from the Lord Jesus, to testify solemnly of the gospel of the grace of God.

  4. What is the Meaning of Fruitbearing Is it the fruit of discipleship? Yes, indeed! Mat 28:19-20 "Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit, (20) teaching them to observe all that I commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age."

  5. What is the Meaning of Fruitbearing John 15:8 “…that you bear much fruit … 16 “…that you would go and bear fruit, and that your fruit would remain… 20 A slave is not greater than his master. 27 and you will testify also, because you have been with Me from the beginning.

  6. What is the Mission of Fruitbearing The mission is for everyone, all inclusive. vs. 2 The mission is relentless. vss. 2, 5, 8 The mission deals with words. vss. 3, 7, 20, 27 The mission finds its source and reliance in Jesus. vss. 4 - 7 The mission is enveloped in Love. vss. 9 - 15

  7. The mission is discipleship, making fruit after our own kind — Christians. The fruit is external, to be sure. It is not the inward quality of the branches — but fruit on (outside) the branches. The salvation of this lost world is the main event! Reproduction and growth of the family of God is clearly seen as a metaphor in relation to our own families — reproduction and growth. We both reproduce and insist that they follow the head of the family — Christ/ dad. vss. 8, 16; Lk. 19:47; Acts 17:11; 19:10; 20:31-32
