Deuteronomy 29:14-18

He is concerned about the kind of attitudes which will lead to apostasy. I want you to think about what is happening in the Worldwide Church of God so that you do not fall into the same problem. That is what He means by a root bearing bitterness. It is some attitude, some inclination, which produces apostasy. It is something that causes them to defect from God.
