Matthew 12:33 New King James Version – “Either make the tree good and its fruit good, or else make the tree bad and its fruit bad; for a tree is known by its fruit.
There are three parts of the tree, which are the roots, stem/trunk, branches where the fruits bear. Now, the stems and the branches will surely come out just because of the soil the roots come from. But in our opening scripture, since the bible is talking about us making our trees good then it means the roots of the tree that brings out all the other parts of the tree is the main tree it is talking about.
This means, the root of the tree is the same as the heart of man, because that is where everything of a man comes from (Proverbs 4:23), because continuing with our Scripture study, it says, out of the abundance of the heart the mouth speaks.
This means we have a responsibility to keep our hearts good and perfect in the Name of Jesus or in accordance with the Holy Scriptures, because that is the only way our fruits can be good, which is expected from us by Christ Jesus, our Glorious Lord.
The tree is known by its fruits, you shall know them by their fruits (Matthew 7:20). God’s elect, it doesn’t matter how we call ourselves Christians or we can pray or read the Bible for any matter, what Christ Jesus is telling us is to be able to bear good fruits, through how we think, talk and act.
Declaration
