1 Corinthians 9:21-23

S When I am with the Gentiles who do not follow the Jewish Law, I too live apart from that law so I can bring them to Christ. But I do not ignore the law of God; I obey the law of Christ.

When I am with those who are weak, I share their weakness, for I want to bring the weak to Christ. Yes, I try to find common ground with everyone, doing everything I can to save some. I do everything to spread the Good News and share in its blessing.

John 15:2

S He cuts off every branch that doesn’t produce fruit, and he prunes the branches that do bear fruit so they will produce even more.
