Matthew 7v15-20

Heavenly father
give us grace to be attentive to the actions of others, particularly when it is at odds with their words. 

¹⁵ “Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing, but inwardly are ravening wolves. 
¹⁶ By their fruits you will know them. Do you gather grapes from thorns or figs from thistles? 
¹⁷ Even so, every good tree produces good fruit, but the corrupt tree produces evil fruit. 
¹⁸ A good tree can’t produce evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree produce good fruit. 
¹⁹ Every tree that doesn’t grow good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 
²⁰ Therefore by their fruits you will know them.
