Matthew 7:15-29.

Matthew 7.15-29
A Tree and Its Fruit

"Watch out for false prophets! They dress up like sheep, but inside
they are wolves who have come to attack you. You can tell what they
are by what they do. No one picks grapes or figs from thornbushes. A
good tree produces good fruit, and a bad tree produces bad fruit. A
good tree cannot produce bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot produce good
fruit. Every tree that produces bad fruit will be chopped down and
burned. You can tell who the false prophets are by their deeds.

A Warning

Not everyone who calls me their Lord will get into the kingdom of
heaven. Only the ones who obey my Father in heaven will get in. On
the day of judgment many will call me their Lord. They will say, "We
preached in your name, and in your name we forced out demons and
worked many miracles." But I will tell them, "I will have nothing to
do with you! Get out of my sight, you evil people!"

Two Builders

Anyone who hears and obeys these teachings of mine is like a wise
person who built a house on solid rock. Rain poured down, rivers
flooded, and winds beat against that house. But it did not fall,
because it was built on solid rock. Anyone who hears my teachings and
doesn't obey them is like a foolish person who built a house on sand.
The rain poured down, the rivers flooded, and the winds blew and beat
against that house. Finally, it fell with a crash. When Jesus finished
speaking, the crowds were surprised at his teaching. He taught them
like someone with authority, and not like their teachers of the Law of
Moses."

God bless you.
