Ep 39: You Will Know Them by Their Fruits | Selah with Ishimwe Vestine

Welcome back to Selah Podcast with Ishimwe Vestine. In a world filled with countless voices, opinions, and influences, how do we discern what is truly from God? In this episode, we dive into Jesus' words in Matthew 7 as He warns us about deception and reminds us that fruit reveals what appearances often conceal. Together, we'll explore the difference between gifts and fruit, charisma and character, and why Jesus never told us to inspect titles, platforms, or popularity—but to examine the fruit. We'll also reflect on the fig tree that had leaves but no fruit, the danger of outward appearances without inward transformation, and the importance of examining our own lives before judging others. As followers of Christ, the question is not simply what we profess, but what our lives consistently produce. Are we rooted in Christ? Are we bearing the fruit of the Spirit? And if someone looked closely at our lives, what would they find? 📖 Key Scriptures Matthew 7:15–20 Matthew 21:18–22 Galatians 5:22–23 Luke 6:45 John 15:1–8 Matthew 23:1–3 🌿 Selah Question If someone examined the fruit of my life, what would it reveal about the root? One Selah at a time. 🤍
