The last two weeks we have slowed down to look closely at a very specific “fruit" that He desires to produce in us and through us: love! In our passage today, Jesus transitions to another relationship that He has yet to mention; the relationship between the world and the believer. The quick summary of this passage is: Do not be surprised! The world hates Jesus and therefore the world will hate you!

As Jesus and His disciples have left the Upper Room (14:31), they are making their way to the Garden of Gethsemane, where Jesus will be betrayed. As they pass through some vineyards in the Kidron Valley, Jesus uses them as a visual aid for fruit bearing. Most believers want to be fruitful in their Christian lives! Jesus explains how that is possible in our passage this morning, and He focuses on God’s activity in making this happen.
