Matthew 7:15-20 - The Sermon On The Mount: Recognizing False Prophets

¹⁵ But beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but within are ravenous wolves. ¹⁶ By their fruits you will know them. Are grapes gathered from thorns, or figs from thistles? ¹⁷ So every good tree produces goodly fruit: but an unsound tree produces diseased fruit. ¹⁸ A good tree can not produce diseased fruit; nor can an unsound tree produce goodly fruit. ¹⁹ Every tree that does not produce goodly fruit, is cut down and thrown into the fire. ²⁰ Therefore, by their fruits you shall know them.
