Judging the Tree by its Fruit

In this week’s episode of Words of Grace, Benjamin Winslett shares a message titled “Judging the Tree by its Fruit.” Drawing from Jesus’ words in Matthew 7, “by their fruits ye shall know them,” Ben reminds us that while we aren’t called to be judgmental people, we are called to exercise discernment. Just as good judgment keeps us from stepping into danger on the highway, spiritual discernment helps us recognize truth from error—especially when it comes to false teachers.

Through passages from Matthew, John, Proverbs, James, and 1 Peter, Ben explores the biblical principle that our works reveal who we are. Even a child is known by his doings, and our actions as believers should reflect the faith we profess. Ultimately, this message challenges us to live in a way that bears witness of Christ and leaves a good name before others.

Listen as we teach on the wisdom of discernment, the importance of our testimony, and the danger of false preachers—reminding us that “when someone shows you who they are, you are wise to believe them.”
