Matthew 7:16 in Context — Matthew 7
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.
18 Un bon arbre ne peut porter de mauvais fruits, ni un mauvais arbre porter de bons fruits.
