For, if God did not have mercy on the natural branches, he will not have mercy on you.

Which is smaller than all seeds; but when it has come up it is greater than the plants, and becomes a tree, so that the birds of heaven come and make their resting-places in its branches.

And all the people put their clothing down in the way; and others got branches from the trees, and put them down in the way.

But when it is planted, it comes up, and becomes taller than all the plants, and puts out great branches, so that the birds of heaven are able to take rest in its shade.

Take an example from the fig-tree: when its branches become soft and put out their leaves, you see that the summer is near;

For I say to you, I will not take of the fruit of the vine till the kingdom of God has come.

And another angel came out from the altar, who has power over fire; and he gave a loud cry to him who had the sharp curved blade, saying, Put in your sharp blade, and let the grapes of the vine of the earth be cut; for her grapes are fully ready.

And the angel sent his blade into the earth, and the vine of the earth was cut, and he put it into the great wine-crusher of the wrath of God.

I am the true vine and my Father is the gardener.
