Scripture focus: “I am the vine, ye are the branches.” — John 15:5 When Jesus said, “I am the vine, ye are the branches,” He used a picture that anyone can understand. A branch cannot live by itself.

When many people hear the word justice, they think of punishment, courtrooms, laws, or people getting what they deserve. Those things can be part of justice, but the Bible gives us a deeper picture.
