"You will know them by their fruits"



“Beware of false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves. You will know them by their fruits. Are grapes gathered from thorns, or figs from thistles? So, every sound tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears evil fruit. A sound tree cannot bear evil fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus you will know them by their fruits.

Tagpasidan’an kita dinhi ni Jesus na duro an mga tawo na bagan kamatuoran an isulti pero sa labing-tinuod, dili baja kon tinood.

Mahamok na an naglaganap na mga bakakon parehas nan kapanahunan pa na bibliya.

An pangutana kuman: Un’hon man nato paghibayo na tinood o bakakon an isa ka magtutudlo?

An marajaw na bunga an resulta nan marajaw ‘sab na panimuyo – panimuyo na nagsubay sa kamatuoran sanan kaligdong sa karakter, base sa balaod ni God.

An bunga ‘sab nan pagka-bakakon magresulta nan waya’y pagpakabana sa sirkumstansiya nan kasay’anan.

Para kita maka-simang sa bakak, kinahanglan na permi kita jaon sa tinood sanan kamatuoran – kamatuoran kan God sanan sa Ija grasya.

Disiplina an magtudlo dato nadto sa kamatuoran na magbunga ‘sab nan pagtuo, paglaum sanan gugma, hustisya, pagka-mapailubon, sanan pagka-may kontrol sa kinabuhi.

"Lord Jesus, may I bear good fruit for your sake and reject whatever will produce evil fruit. Help me grow in faith, hope, love, sound judgment, justice, courage, and self control."
