Good seed versus bad seed? (Mt 13)

For false prophets are those who come as wolves in sheep's clothing, and their words are taken as those of God. They work miracles, cast out demons, and practice LAWLESSNESS (Mt 7:22-23). How do you determine whether they are speaking for God or the devil, since Yeshua told them "I never knew you", and the majority follow them down the road to destruction. (Mt 7:13)

The Holy Spirit bears witness to me. Are you a Christian? I would think if you are you would be aware of the Holy Spirit.

.....A good man brings good things out of the good stored up in him, and an evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in him.



How do you discern the two?, one is life and one is death. Are we that dead we cannot realize whether the words we speak are wholesome or not ?.

One is life and the other, death..... ABSOLUTELY!! Couldn't have said it better.
