Matthew 7:13-23

13 "Enter through the narrow gate because the gate and road that lead to destruction are wide. Many enter through the wide gate.

14 But the narrow gate and the road that lead to life are full of trouble. Only a few people find the narrow gate.

15 "Beware of false prophets. They come to you disguised as sheep, but in their hearts they are vicious wolves.

16 You will know them by what they produce. "People don't pick grapes from thornbushes or figs from thistles, do they?

17 In the same way every good tree produces good fruit, but a rotten tree produces bad fruit.

18 A good tree cannot produce bad fruit, and a rotten tree cannot produce good fruit.

19 Any tree that fails to produce good fruit is cut down and thrown into a fire.

20 So you will know them by what they produce.

21 "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord!' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the person who does what my Father in heaven wants.

22 Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, didn't we prophesy in your name? Didn't we force out demons and do many miracles by the power and authority of your name?'

23 Then I will tell them publicly, 'I've never known you. Get away from me, you evil people.'
