“Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.” (Matthew 7:20) King James Version “凡不结好果子的，就要砍下来，扔到火里去。所以，凭着他们的果子，就可以认出他们来。”（马太7：20KJV）
这个谚语是指一个人的坏念头很容易从他或她的舉止中看出来。
在他著名的山上宝训中，耶稣提醒百姓要小心假先知。一个真正的先知是依据圣经和基督的教导来传播真理的，假先知却打着虔诚的幌子，篡改基督教的教义。他们结的果子，他们做的事情，是应该被“扔到火里的。”
