If you have ever tried to produce apples and have seen damage from pests or disease it will be easy to understand the meaning of Good Fruit. \u00a0The one thing that you will know very quickly is that it is easier to produce Bad Fruit. \u00a0Assume our heart and soul are the tree that this fruit is produced. \u00a0How can you protect it so that it produce good fruit? \u00a0A fruit tree will naturally take up water and nutrients from the soil. \u00a0However we are different in that we must choose to take up the water and nutrients from God’s word. \u00a0Good Fruit comes from choosing to live to honor and glorify God rather than satisfy self.<\/p>\n

Matthew 12:33
\n\u201cEither make the tree good and its fruit good, or make the tree bad and its fruit bad, for the tree is known by its fruit. You brood of vipers! How can you speak good, when you are evil?
