Guard Against False Prophets

Scripture Passage: Matthew 7:15-20

Just like the good and bad fruit of a tree, so there are two ways of life. Many people follow the easy way because liars and false prophets mislead them. But this way leads to destruction. We must not only read God's word, but we must obey it.

Questions:
1. Who are we to watch out for?
False prophets.
2. How will we know these false teachers?
By their fruit.
3. What will happen to a tree which does not bear good fruit?
It will be cut down and put into the fire.


Memory verse: Galatians 5:22-23

But when the Holy Spirit controls our lives, he will produce this kind of fruit in us: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. (NLT)
