Matthew 7:16

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Matthew 7:16. Ye shall know them -

How? By their eloquence? No. Some of the worst of teachers have had great persuasiveness. You shall know them by their earnestness? No. Some have compassed sea and land to make proselytes to a lie. You shall know them how, then?

Matthew 7:16. By their fruits.

If their teaching makes you better, if it makes you love God, if it draws you to holiness, if it inspires you with noble and heroic sentiments, so that you imitate Christ, then listen to them.
