A good tree produces good fruit and an evil tree produces evil
fruit. What sort of tree is your life?
Jesus said, "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and
broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many
who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult
is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.
"Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing,
but inwardly they are ravenous wolves. You will know them
by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thorn bushes or figs
from thistles? Even so, every good tree bears good fruit,
but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear
bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. Every tree
that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the
fire. Therefore by their fruits you will know them.
"Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the
kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in
heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have
we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name,
and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will
declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who
practice lawlessness!’
"Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I
will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock:
and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and
beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on
the rock. But everyone who hears these sayings of Mine,
and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his
house on the sand: and the rain descended, the floods came, and
the winds blew and beat on that house; and it fell. And great
was its fall."
(Matthew 7:13-27, NKJV)
