Matthew 12:33

"Either make the tree good, and its fruit good; or make the tree bad, and its fruit bad; for a tree is known by its fruit.

"For no good tree bears bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit.

You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thorn bushes, or figs from thistles?

Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit by itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in me.

Bear fruit worthy of repentance,

Blind Pharisee! First cleanse the inside of the cup and dish, that the outside of them may be clean also.

And even now the ax is laid at the root of the trees; every tree therefore that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire."

But the Lord said to him, "Now you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness.

Can a fig tree, my brethren, produce olives, or a grapevine produce figs? Nor can salt water produce fresh.

Draw near to God and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded.
