Matthew 12:33

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the tree corrupt, and his fruit corrupt: for the tree is known by his fruit.

Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first, the inside of the cup and dish, that the outside of them may be clean also.

Now ye Pharisees make clean the outside of the cup and the dish; but your inward part is full of rapine and wickedness.

Draw nigh to God and he will draw nigh to you: cleanse your hands, ye sinners, and purify your hearts, ye double-minded.

Bring forth therefore fruit worthy of repentance:

By their fruits ye shall know them. Do men gather grapes from thorns, or figs from thistles?

And now also the axe lieth at the root of the trees: every tree therefore which bringeth not forth good fruit, is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

For there is no good tree which bringeth forth corrupt fruit, neither a corrupt tree, which bringeth forth good fruit.

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

Can a fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries, or a vine figs? So can no fountain yield salt water and fresh.

For there is no good tree which bringeth forth corrupt fruit, neither a corrupt tree, which bringeth forth good fruit.
