I am the true vine, and my Father is the vinedresser.Every branch in me that does not bear fruit he takesaway, and every branch that does bear fruit heprunes, that it may bear more fruit. Already you areclean because of the word that I have spoken toyou. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branchcannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in thevine, neither can you, unless you abide in me. I amthe vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides inme and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, forapart from me you can do nothing.

If anyone does not abide in me he is thrownaway like a branch and withers; and thebranches are gathered, thrown into the fire,and burned. If you abide in me, and my wordsabide in you, ask whatever you wish, and it willbe done for you. By this my Father is glorified,that you bear much fruit and so prove to bemy disciples. John 15:1-8 (ESV)

By this my Father is glorified, that you bearmuch fruit and so prove to be my disciples.

As each has received a gift, use it to serve oneanother, as good stewards of God’s varied grace:whoever speaks, as one who speaks oracles ofGod; whoever serves, as one who serves by thestrength that God supplies—in order that ineverything God may be glorified through JesusChrist. To him belong glory and dominionforever and ever. Amen. 1 Peter 4:10-11 (ESV)

But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace,patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness,gentleness, self-control; against such thingsthere is no law. And those who belong toChrist Jesus have crucified the flesh with itspassions and desires. Galatians 5:22-24 (ESV)

When the day of Pentecost arrived, they wereall together in one place. And suddenly therecame from heaven a sound like a mightyrushing wind, and it filled the entire housewhere they were sitting. And divided tonguesas of fire appeared to them and rested oneach one of them. And they were all filledwith the Holy Spirit and began to speak inother tongues as the Spirit gave themutterance.

Now there were dwelling in Jerusalem Jews,devout men from every nation under heaven.And at this sound the multitude cametogether, and they were bewildered, becauseeach one was hearing them speak in his ownlanguage. And they were amazed andastonished, saying, “Are not all these who arespeaking Galileans? And how is it that wehear, each of us in his own native language?

Parthians and Medes and Elamites and residentsof Mesopotamia, Judea and Cappadocia, Pontusand Asia, Phrygia and Pamphylia, Egypt and theparts of Libya belonging to Cyrene, and visitorsfrom Rome, both Jews and proselytes, Cretansand Arabians—we hear them telling in our owntongues the mighty works of God.” And all wereamazed and perplexed, saying to one another,“What does this mean?” But others mocking said,“They are filled with new wine.”

But Peter, standing with the eleven, lifted uphis voice and addressed them: “Men of Judeaand all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this beknown to you, and give ear to my words. Forthese people are not drunk, as you suppose,since it is only the third hour of the day. Butthis is what was uttered through the prophetJoel:

“And in the last days it shall be, God declares,that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh, andyour sons and your daughters shall prophesy,and your young men shall see visions, andyour old men shall dream dreams;

even on my male servants and femaleservants in those days I will pour out mySpirit, and they shall prophesy. And I willshow wonders in the heavens above andsigns on the earth below, blood, and fire, andvapor of smoke; the sun shall be turned todarkness and the moon to blood, before theday of the Lord comes, the great andmagnificent day.

And it shall come to pass that everyone whocalls upon the name of the Lord shall besaved.” Acts 2:1-21 (ESV)
