Lesson 462: THE VINE AND THE BRANCHES Part 3; JOHN 15:1,2,5

INTRODUCTION:
In the previous part of this series, we have looked at the fruitless branch and the fruitful branch. Today want to look at the progression in fruit bearing. May God bless us as we study at His Feet in Jesus name, Amen

I. FROM GLORY TO GLORY
A branch can move from bearing more fruit to much fruit. Just as our faith can move from zero faith to exceeding great faith. In fact the plan of God for our lives is for us to move from glory to glory
John.15: l, Matt.15: 28, Mt.8: 10, 2.Cor.3: l8; 11:1.3

2. ABIDING IN CHRIST CAN LEAD TO SOMETHING BETTER THAN BEST
The conditions for bearing much fruit are for us to abide in Christ and Christ to abide in us. If we abide in Him, our best can even be better
