The Fruit Bearing Tree - Matthew 7: 16-20

God calls His own people to live a life that bears real good fruit fruit that comes from true living tree both connected at it's very root We need to be rooted in Christ living for Him surrendered to His will filled with His spirit display His love hoping expectantly for His coming still But in this world of fallenness we have a fight deep within there our sinful nature fights us striving to keep us down in sin In all of this battle within our soul God's promised in us to show His son showing His loving compassion to fill us fully so we be Christ like won Take courage keep looking to Jesus in Him you'll be a fruit bearing tree overcome sin, Satan and all things in Christ alone fruitful you'll be (' You will recognize them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? So, every healthy tree bears good fruit, but the diseased tree bears bad fruit. A healthy tree cannot bear bad fruit, nor can a diseased tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus you will recognize them by their fruits'.) Matthew ch. 7 vs. 16-20 (ESV)
