New Testament

Matthew 7:12-22 Tree Of Life Version (TLV)

12. So in all things, do to others what you would want them to do to you—for this is the Torah and the Prophets.

13. “Enter through the narrow gate; for the gate is wide and the way is broad that leads to destruction, and those who enter through it are many.

14. How narrow is the gate and difficult the way that leads to life, and those who find it are few.”

15. “Watch out for false prophets, who come to you in sheep’s clothing but inwardly are ravenous wolves.

16. You will recognize them by their fruit. Grapes aren’t gathered from thorn bushes or figs from thistles, are they?

17. Even so, every good tree produces good fruit, but the rotten tree produces bad fruit.

18. A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, nor can a rotten tree produce good fruit.

19. Every tree that does not produce good fruit is chopped down and thrown into the fire.

20. So then, you will recognize them by their fruit.

21. “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord!’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.

22. Many will say to Me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, didn’t we prophesy in Your name, and drive out demons in Your name, and perform many miracles in Your name?’
