According to the teachings of Jesus you know a true prophet from a false prophet according to their fruits. Be careful of false prophets that come to you dressed as a sheep. Inside their hearts they may be similar to a ravening wolf.



A prophet of God, the Father in Heaven, will bring forth good fruit just as good trees bring forth good tasting and good looking fruit and a corrupt tree or one that is rotten will bring forth nasty looking fruit. By this, you will know which tree to eat from, and by the fruits (which are behaviors, words, deeds of people) you will also know which prophet to follow after.

Every tree that does not bring forth ?eatable? fruit is cut down and destroyed. In this same manner will all false prophets, teacher, guides, and evangelists and so on and so forth will also at some point in time be cut off and destroyed.

Not everyone who thinks they will enter into the Kingdom of heaven will actually enter in on that final day. Only those people who have actually done the will of the Father will pass on through the gate to eternal life. It is predicted that many people will say on that last great judgment day, ?Why Lord have I not prophesied in your name and cast out devils in your name as well.? ?Lord have I not done many wonderful works in your name? In that hour, Jesus will tell them, ?I never knew you, depart from me, you that worked iniquity.

But those people who hear the sayings of Jesus and do them, he is considered a wise man that built his house upon a rock. When the rain and the floods came, and the winds blew against this man or woman's house, it didn't fall, because it was founded upon a rock.

For those people who heard the sayings of Jesus, but did them not, he is considered a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand. When the rain and floods came, and the wind blew against the house, it fell, and great was the fall of it.

When Jesus ended his sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine. In the days of Jesus when these sayings were first delivered, the people felt as though his sayings were taught as one having authority, and not as the scribes.

The lesson we want to learn from these particular sayings of Jesus Christ is that the true wise men and women of this present world will be those who obey the laws of God. When their hard times come, when the temptations and trials of their life come in on them like floods of rain and strong winds, they will continue to stand steadfast, because their trust and their belief systems are founded upon the rock. That rock is Jesus Christ and all his teachings. They will still be standing on the great judgment day and will enter in to life everlasting.

By contrast, are the men and women who decide to turn away the laws of God and seek another pathway throughout their lifetime. Their final fall will be great, as I believe this to mean, the great fall of this type of man or woman will be to receive eternal torment.
