Are You Cleansed, Clipped and Christ-like?

God has a plan to make us fruitful for Him. It is simple, there are two parts: clip and prune! In the New Testament these two parts are called chastening and sanctification. These two Biblical truths are set forth side by side more clearly here than anywhere else in God's Word. If we can see them, learn them, and respond to them in our lives - God has great plans ahead for us, plans for lifelong fruitfulness.
