Matthew 7:15-20

A Tree and Its Fruit

15 aBeware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are bravenous wolves. 16You will recognize them cby their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? 17So, devery healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. 18A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. 19 eEvery tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20Thus you will recognize them fby their fruits.
