DISCOURSE XII.
MATT. vii. 15‒20.
_Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheeps cloathing,
but inwardly they are ravening wolves.
Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of
thorns, or figs of thistles?
Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit: but a corrupt
tree bringeth forth evil fruit.
A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt
tree bring forth good fruit.
Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit, is hewn down and
cast into the fire.
