"You will know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles?" (Matthew 7:16 NKJV)

Context and Meaning

In Matthew 7:15-20, Jesus warns against false prophets who appear harmless but are deceitful at their core. He emphasizes that genuine prophets and followers of Christ will produce good deeds and outcomes, much like a healthy tree produces good fruit. Conversely, despite their outward appearances, false prophets will ultimately reveal their true nature through harmful or deceitful actions. The metaphor is simple yet profound: just as good trees produce good fruit and bad trees produce bad fruit, the true character of individuals is evident in their actions.
