Bible Question (short): No fruit apart from Jesus? |
Question (full): Kalos, greetings! I guess I'm entering this discussion a little late. I'm struggling a bit about Judas. Is he part of the vine because he was a Jew? If indeed he was cut off, this would make sense to me, but how does this relate to us as Gentiles as "ingrafted branches?" Jesus said, "Apart from me you can do nothing." (John 15:5) Therefore should we be able to conclude that apart from Jesus, we can bear no fruit? Just wondering about this! Blessings, Mommapbs |
