# John 15:5 and Obedience **John 15:5** states: "I am the vine; you are the branches. If you remain in me and I in you, you will bear much fruit; apart from me you can do nothing" (NIV). This verse teaches that obedience is only possible through an abiding relationship with Christ—we cannot obey God in our own strength. Just as branches must stay connected to the vine to bear fruit, believers must remain connected to Jesus to live obediently and produce spiritual fruit in their lives.
