As fruit is the great proof of the true relation to Christ, so prayer is of our relation to the Father.

There are some fruits that will not keep.

Christ reveals His twofold purpose in choosing us to be His Branches: that we may bear fruit on earth, and have power in prayer in heaven.

THE highest proof of true friendship, and one great source of its blessedness...

OUR Lord has said what He gave as proof of His friendship: He gave His life for us.

Christ means it: you must obey, or you cannot abide in His love.
