A Tree and Its Fruit (MAT 7:15-20)

[7:15] “Be on your guard against false prophets; they come to you looking like sheep on the outside, but on the inside they are really like wild wolves.

[7:16] You will know them by what they do. Thorn bushes do not bear grapes, and briers do not bear figs.

[7:17] A healthy tree bears good fruit, but a poor tree bears bad fruit.

[7:18] A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a poor tree cannot bear good fruit.

[7:19] And any tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown in the fire.

[7:20] So then, you will know the false prophets by what they do.
