Luke 6:32-47

If you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? Even sinners love those who love them.   If you do what is good to those who are good to you, what credit is that to you?

First take the beam of wood out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to take out the splinter in your brother’s eye. “A good tree doesn’t produce bad fruit; on the other hand, a bad tree doesn’t produce good fruit.   , For each tree is known by its own fruit. Figs aren’t gathered from thornbushes, or grapes picked from a bramble bush. A good person produces good out of the good stored up in his heart. An evil person produces evil out of the evil stored up in his heart, for his mouth speaks from the overflow of the heart. “Why do you call me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and don’t do the things I say?   I will show you what someone is like who comes to me, hears my words, and acts on them:
