Early Church faced conflict, as some
Jews insisted circumcision on Gentiles. Paul and Barnabas opposed this, to avoid
unnecessary burdens. Jesus’ Words clarified the heart of the matter: “I am the
vine, you are the branches.” Fruitfulness comes not from rituals, but from
remaining in Him. Branches bear fruit only when connected to the vine. Father
prunes fruitful branches for greater growth. Thus Today’s Message is: Abide in Christ through His WORD and
prayer, rather than rules or self-effort, as true discipleship is a relationship.
Message to Live By: Don't let "rules" roots choke your "grace" fruits. True growth comes from staying connected to Jesus, not from ticking boxes of tradition. Stay in the Vine, and let God handle the pruning.
