Matthew 7:15 in Context — Matthew 7

13 Entrez par la porte étroite. Car large est la porte, spacieux est le chemin qui mènent à la perdition, et il y en a beaucoup qui entrent par là.

14 Mais étroite est la porte, resserré le chemin qui mènent à la vie, et il y en a peu qui les trouvent.

15 Gardez-vous des faux prophètes. Ils viennent à vous en vêtements de brebis, mais au-dedans ce sont des loups ravisseurs.

16 Vous les reconnaîtrez à leurs fruits. Cueille-t-on des raisins sur des épines, ou des figues sur des chardons?

17 Tout bon arbre porte de bons fruits, mais le mauvais arbre porte de mauvais fruits.
