20 Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them.
20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.
20 Thus you will recognize them by their fruits.
20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them.
20 Yes, just as you can identify a tree by its fruit, so you can identify people by their actions.
Matthew Henry's Commentary on Matthew 7:20
Commentary on Matthew 7:15-20
(Read Matthew 7:15-20)
Nothing so much prevents men from entering the strait gate, and becoming true followers of Christ, as the carnal, soothing, flattering doctrines of those who oppose the truth. They may be known by the drift and effects of their doctrines. Some part of their temper and conduct is contrary to the mind of Christ. Those opinions come not from God that lead to sin.
