“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thorns or figs from thistles? In the same way, every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus you will know them by their fruits. (Matthew 7:15-20, NRSVue)
God is seeking spiritual fruits, not religious nuts!
We are known to the world by what we produce, and if you are using your faith to keep others down and make gains for yourself, it’s no wonder why people are leaving the church to find faith elsewhere.
Faith should lift us and others up, not keep people in their places, so we gain more.
Be a fruit that shares love, not a nut that causes people to walk away.
