You Will Know Them by Their Fruits
15 a“Beware of false prophets, bwho come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly they are ravenous wolves.
16 aYou will know them by their fruits. bDo men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles?
19 aEvery tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them.
I Never Knew You
21 “Not everyone who says to Me, a‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who bdoes the will of My Father in heaven.
