A Tree and Its Fruit

Matthew 12

Matthew12:33 Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree evil and its fruit evil. For certainly a tree is known by its fruit.

Matthew12:34 Progeny of vipers, how are you able to speak good things while you are evil? For out of the abundance of the heart, the mouth speaks.

Matthew12:35 A good man offers good things from a good storehouse. And an evil man offers evil things from an evil storehouse.

Matthew12:36 But I say to you, that for every idle word which men will have spoken, they shall render an account in the day of judgment.

Matthew12:37 For by your words shall you be justified, and by your words shall you be condemned.”
