  1. Roots Part 1: Roots and Fruits Jeremy LeVan 01-17-16

  2. Roots and Fruits

  3. John15:8 8 By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.

  4. Matthew 7:17-18 17 Even so, every good tree (root) bears good fruit, but a bad tree (root) bears bad fruit. 18 A good tree (root) cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree (root) bear good fruit.

  5. Matthew 12:33 33 Either make the tree (root) good and its fruit good, or else make the tree (root) bad and its fruit bad; for a tree (root) is known by its fruit.

  6. 1.Jesus is the vine (root).

  7. John 15:5 5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.”

  8. Isaiah 11:1 1 There shall come forth a Rod from the stem of Jesse, and a Branch shall grow out of His roots.

  9. Isaiah 11:10 10 “And in that day there shall be a Root of Jesse”

  10. Isaiah 53:2 2 He shall grow up before Him as a tender plant, and as a root out of dry ground.

  11. Revelation 5:5 5 But one of the elders said to me, “Do not weep. Behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the scroll and to loose its seven seals.”

  12. Revelation 22:16 16 “I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star.”

  13. Philippians 4:13 13 I can do all thingsthrough Christ who strengthens me.

  14. With Jesus – ALL THINGS Without Jesus – NO THINGS.

  15. 2.We are the branches.

  16. John 15:4 4 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannotbear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me.

  17. Galatians 5:22-23 22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, 23 gentleness, self-control.

  18. We bear or carry fruit for two reasons… 1. Display it to the World. 

  19. We bear or carry fruit for two reasons… 1. Display it to the World.  2. Others can eat the fruit

  20. Abide – To stay in one place for a long time.

  21. 3.  The Father is the vinedresser.

  22. John 15:1 1 I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser.

  23. Isaiah 5:1-7 1 Now let me sing to my Well-beloved A song of my Beloved regarding His vineyard: My Well-beloved has a vineyardOn a very fruitful hill. 2 He dug it up and cleared out its stones,And planted it with the choicest vine. He built a tower in its midst,And also made a winepress in it;So He expected it to bring forth good grapes, But it brought forth wild grapes.

  24. Isaiah 5:1-7 CONTINUED 3 “And now, O inhabitants of Jerusalem and men of Judah, Judge, please, between Me and My vineyard. 4 What more could have been done to My vineyardThat I have not done in it?Why then, when I expected it to bring forth good grapes,Did it bring forth wild grapes?

  25. Isaiah 5:1-7 CONTINUED 5And now, please let Me tell you what I will do to My vineyard:I will take away its hedge, and it shall be burned;And break down its wall, and it shall be trampled down. 6 I will lay it waste;It shall not be pruned or dug, But there shall come up briers and thorns. I will also command the cloudsThat they rain no rain on it.” 7 For the vineyard of the LORD  of hosts is the house of Israel…

  26. Matthew 21:33-37 33 Hear another parable: There was a certain landowner who planted a vineyard and set a hedge around it, dug a winepress in it and built a tower. And he leased it to vinedressers and went into a far country. 34 Now when vintage-time drew near, he sent his servants to the vinedressers, that they might receive its fruit. 35 And the vinedressers took his servants, beat one, killed one, and stoned another. 36 Again he sent other servants, more than the first, and they did likewise to them.  37 Then last of all he sent his son to them, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’

  27. Luke 20:13 13 Then the owner of the vineyard said, What shall I do? I will send my beloved son. Probably they will respect him when they see him

  28. Mark 12:6                                          6 Therefore still having one son, his beloved, he also sent him to them last, saying, ‘They will respect my son.’

  29. Matthew 21:38-40 38But when the vinedressers saw the son, they said among themselves, ‘This is the heir. Come, let us kill him and seize his inheritance.’ 39 So they took him and cast him out of the vineyard and killed him. 40 “Therefore, when the owner of the vineyard comes, what will he do to those vinedressers?”
