Bible Verse: You Will Know Them By Their Fruits
Share
Jesus tells us in the word that we will know those that belong to the Lord and are the children of God and those that are not. If someone says they're a Christian but don't have the fruit, then they are probably not in a relationship with Jesus Christ because we know that a good tree can't bring forth bad fruit and vice versa like in
Matthew 7:16-20
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.
