About This Quote
Abiding in the vine leads to fruit bearing. This quote is a great reminder that if you are living life on your own terms, with integrity, virtue, and honesty, you will reap the rewards of your actions. This is true for all areas of life, but especially the spiritual realm. We are told that one of the three characteristics of a true Christian is that they do not abide in the vine.
They are living their lives apart from God’s plan for them. However, they also somehow end up living “in the vine” because they refuse to abide by God’s plan. One can even say that they are abiding in the vine because they refuse to abide in God’s plan.
