Matthew 7:17 in Context — Matthew 7

15 Tende cuidado, porém, com os falsos profetas, que vêm a vós com roupa de ovelhas, mas por dentro são lobos vorazes.

16 Vós os conhecereis pelos seus frutos. Por acaso se colhem uvas dos espinheiros, ou figos dos cardos?

17 Assim toda boa árvore dá bons frutos, mas a arvore má dá frutos maus.

18 A boa árvore não pode dar frutos maus, nem a árvore má dar bons frutos.

19 Toda árvore que não dá bom fruto é cortada e lançada ao fogo.
