Jesus said this?

Question

"I am the vine; you are the branches. If a man remains in me and I in Him, he will bare much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing."

-JOHN 15:5, NIV

What are some good examples of "fruit bearing"?

Answer 1

yes he did!

the fruits of the spirit are as follows:

Galations 5:22-23 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance.

Answer 2

Our life witnes is the fruit. The seeds we plant by our lives (more what we do than what we say) will spring up to become another branch and the process continues. Our lives should be a reflection of Jesus to the world.

Gal 5:22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
Gal 5:23 Meekness, temperance: against such there is no law.

Answer 3

Fruit bearing from Christ are your actions and deeds. Are you kind and courteous? Do you tell the truth even when it could cost you dearly? Do you remember to thank people - such as when you've received a gift? Do people seek you out for your Biblical knowledge (which if you don't get out of that NIV - you're going to be learning some really wrong knowledge). He is speaking of our ability to be bold about Him and how we share his Word - have you ever noticed that a surprise lilly produces a whole of greenage before it ever produces the lilly? Well, sometimes our fruit bearing is that we planted the seed and we may not ever see the fruit come forth. But somewhere down the road it does. Our fruit is what we allow Christ to do through us, not our own works because they are useless, but what Christ does is our fruit. Sorry it took me the long way around the farm yard to get to the barn, but sometimes my mind can't formulate the direct path!

Answer 4

How about people who go to college, then seminary, and get the equivalent of a PhD. and work for less than minimum wage. All just to help save a bunch of people who would urinate on them if they had a chance. People who stay there even in the rough times, with never so much as a thank you. That's real fruit. You can't do that if you are not drawing strength from the Vine (Lord).

Answer 5

Following in Christ's footsteps, doing the things he did.

John 13. 15-17
I have set you an example that you should do as I have done for you.

I tell you the truth, no servant is greater than his master, nor is a messenger greater than the one who sent him.

Now that you know these things, you will be blessed if you do them.

Acts 10:38
How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and power, and how he went around doing good and healing all who were under the power of the devil, because God was with him.

Answer 6

Fruit bearing fruit is when you spread the "Good News" (aka. Gospel, the Death, burial, and Resurrection of Christ) Then some one hears you and decides to follow Christ because you told them about the Good News.
Then they in return do the same thing.

Answer 7

IT CALLS METAPHORE !
Let me see, huh,huh,huh, sure I?, can you find in U.S., a sample
of a true man of God that you will which to be prove that he have and he posses, what he have acquired for ever because he became a branch of Jesus vain, and because he did follow "God desires for man to become to achieved" and achieved again for to follow the same.
"I am not yet a branch but merely and perhaps not even a leaf from......, So, if my Son and/or protegee help me to finish what could become my own quotation, I think I know what Jesus meant. Seriously now, what ever Jesus said, which you Quoted from JOHN15:5, NIB. make me think that you haven't yet begin to do your home work. do you believed what you read? did you understood what you saw?, isn't perhaps JOHN, him self a good enough prove of the fruit bearing, are you in any way related to one and/or perhaps two of the apostles?, Can I be of any help?. The whole point of Jesus the Lord Christ religion is to get our selves to blindly believed, in him and trust him and love him because he is the way?, or you like many others in here think that you are better than that, and you prefer to do what wait for the lord to come?, why?, it wont work that way. Think, your answer, answer's are in your own question?, the mind is a terrible thing (why not think), to waste?. can I give it to you in black and white? How?. can you trust your neighboor can you trust me? can you trusth Jesus and God?. come one be real God bless
