v13‘Enter in through the narrow gate. There is a wide gate and a broad road. But that way leads to hell. Many people go through that wide gate. v14 But the gate is small that leads to life. And the road is narrow. Few people find that way.’
v15 ‘Be cautious about false prophets. They dress up like sheep, but inside they are like fierce animals. v16 You will know these people by the results of their lives. Grapes do not come from bushes with thorns. Neither do figs come from a plant with thorns. v17 In the same way, every good tree produces good fruit. But a bad tree produces bad fruit. v18 A good tree cannot produce bad fruit. And a bad tree cannot produce good fruit. v19 We cut down every tree that does not produce good fruit. And we throw it on the fire. v20 So, you will know these false prophets by the results of their lives.
v21 Not everyone who says to me, “*Lord, Lord” will enter the kingdom of heaven. Only the people who obey my Father in heaven will enter the kingdom. v22 Many people will say to me on that day, “Lord, Lord. We prophesied in your name. We forced out *demons in your name. We even did many deeds of power in your name.” v23 Then I will declare to them, “I never knew you. Go away from me, you who do evil deeds.” ’
