by their fruits you will know them.

Beware of the false prophets, who come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are rapacious wolves.
By their fruits you will know them. Are grapes picked from thorns, or figs from thistles?
Thus, every good tree bears good fruit, but the bad tree bears bad fruit.
The good tree can not bear bad fruit, nor the bad tree can bear good fruit.
Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.
So, by their fruits you will know them.
Matthew 17: 15-20

Today I was reading a comment about an artist (Cantente) who lives from it, he is famous. After becoming converted, he began to preach the gospel in one way or another wherever he was invited.

This great artist does NOT want to devote himself to Christian music precisely because people criticize him and say "You have to stop singing for the world and sing for God, without holiness no one will see the Lord".

Talking about the subject. about 3 weeks ago, we were sharing a barbecue with a friend who is a Costa Cruise musician, and now he has formed his own secular music band "Bohemios son" and told me: When a judge turns they do not say: "now you have to work in a Christian court ", and if a policeman has the opportunity" you have to work in a Christian police station ", but if he becomes a musician they say to him:" You have to sing Christian music. "

This is really LAMENTABLE and decadent.

Someone said "we are light and we do not have to be in darkness"
According to the word the light has to light "In darkness".

Many times the text quoted at the beginning is used to judge or condemn.

What are good fruits and bad fruits? </ center>

Thus, every good tree bears good fruit, but a bad tree bears bad fruit.
A good tree can not bear bad fruit, nor can a bad tree bear good fruit.

And look at this: * Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. *

Many times this applies to the children of God, but here it says "Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire", speaking of the old man, of the Adamic sinful nature.
You who are hij @ de Dios are good tree. You will give good fruits because you are nourished from the root.

We speak of the good tree, "The life of Christ in us". IT CAN NOT GIVE BAD FRUITS.

9 Everyone who is born of God, does not practice sin, because the seed of God abides in him; and he can not sin, because he is born of God.
1 John 3: 9

Note that it says: "CAN NOT".

When someone says: "You have to leave the things of the world", the things of the world is everything that is not spiritual, then: "Stop working", "Stop studying", "Stop going to the club", and we see who eats his family. It sounds a bit harsh but it is reality in many congregations.

But they NEVER use this phrase to condemn and resist the "LEGALITY" exerted in the Church as a principle of apostasy where they begin to use mundane methods (I do not speak of playing guitar with distortion or playing the drums), I mean to oppress the saints, to put charges on them that they can not carry, exhausting them with mundane methodologies (Religious, economic and political system).

There are those who are constantly exerting pressure on the children of God, setting parameters for everything, demanding certain behavior to earn something and this further frustrates the believer.

For all this there is a solution.

... Grow by the word of Grace ...

and it is in the bible within reach of anyone, mainly in the letters of the apostle Paul.

My wish is that you be enriched by the word and be affirmed.
