A Tree and It's fruit
When Jesus was teaching the crowds in the mountains he used the illustration of trees and there fruits to show how actions are deeply rooting in what motivates us. Either from God or the devil. Matthew 7:15-17 15 "Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly are ravenous wolves. 16 "You will know them by their fruits. Grapes are not gathered from thorn bushes nor figs from thistles, are they? 17 "So every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit.… Sadly today many still pretend to have a form of godliness, though they are strangers to god and even deny the power of God by their actions.
