For there is no good tree that brings forth rotten fruit; nor again a rotten tree that brings forth good fruit.

45
The good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings out that which is good, and the evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings out that which is evil, for out of the abundance of the heart, his mouth speaks.

Everyone who comes to me, and hears my words, and does them, I will show you who he is like.
