What does it mean You will know them by their fruits?

Answer 1

Well, honey, it means you can spot a good or bad person by looking at their actions. Just like how you can tell if a fruit is ripe or rotten by its appearance and taste. So, if someone's constantly spreading negativity and drama, they're probably not the juiciest peach in the orchard.

Answer 2

Matthew 7:15-20

Watch out for false prophets. They come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ferocious wolves. By their fruit you will recognize them. Do people pick grapes from thornbushes, or figs from thistles? Likewise, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit. A good tree cannot bear bad fruit, and a bad tree cannot bear good fruit. Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.

Men who falsely claim to represent God. Jesus predicted that their will be false prophets who will come to Christians dressed in sheep's clothing, and will pretend to be part of the flock, but they are actually ravenous wolves. And that you may know these prophets by their fruits. Meaning if what they say to you will actually line up with the "Word of God". It's simply about separating the truth from error. For there are many false doctrines and teachings. Never equate sincerity with Truth. Many that speak false doctrine are very sincere, yet they are sincerely wrong.

That's why Jesus wants to make sure you know the TRUTH about the Word of God. That is what his whole purpose on earth was for, was to teach us about the Lord God, and to be a witness for His father. And now we are to be a witness of the Lord Jesus Christ are savior!
