Good Or Evil Fruit
Thanks and praise to our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ.
Many come in the name of Jesus Christ and it is easy to be fooled by them. Let us pray for the knowledge and ability to discern the difference so that we are not drawn into their web of lies and deceit. There are many that have brought forth evil fruit that we have been able to see. And it will continue until our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ comes again. I ask for your prayers also for me and my family. For I am just a lowly sinner undeserving of God's grace which He so bountifully bestows on me. Praise His dear name.
Matthew 7:15-23
15: Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
16: Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles?
17: Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
18: A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.
19: Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.
20: Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
21: Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22: Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23: And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
