Abstract
This article explores the impact of Jesus’ “true vine” metaphor on discipleship and spirituality. The first part is a study of John 15:1-8, the passage where these teachings are recorded. The second part presents some theological developments, showing how Jesus’ lessons about abiding on Him have influenced the doctrine of unio mystica within the Reformed tradition. Finally, the third section features some implications from the exegetical and theological study for Christian ministries and discipleship.
