This teaching focuses on the meaning of the axe at the root of the tree and why God requires the fruit of repentance from everyone. It explains how spiritual fruitfulness separates true believers from those who only appear religious and reminds us that every unfruitful tree will eventually face divine judgment unless it turns back to God.
Matthew 3:10 ( And now also the axe is laid unto the root of the trees: therefore every tree which brings not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire)
The Bible says that the axe is laid at the root of the trees, and every tree that doesn’t bring forth fruit shall be cut down and cast into the fire.
There is a fruit that is being demanded from humans, and it’s the fruit of repentance. This includes the generations of the serpent and the brood of vipers, as long as you appear in the image of Adam, something is expected from you.
You may attend water baptism and speak in tongues in your church, but you may be a worker without being transformed. The flesh is still on the throne of your life, yet it is hidden under religious activities.
Be expecting at any moment to be cut short and join those who are in hell, that is standing in rebellion against God’s commandments.
John the Baptist told the people who came for Baptism what they needed. They might claim to have a relationship with Abraham, but if they are not ready to do the work of Father Abraham, they will all perish, and God can raise stones for their replacement.
The stones here are the heathen and unbelievers, whose generation never heard of Abraham but are ready to inherit the promises of Abraham by faith in the Lord Jesus Christ.
Fruit that shows you have changed from corruptible to incorruptible, from carnality to spiritual, that old man would have died, and the new man is in control.
This can only be gotten through repentance and by atonement of the blood of Christ.
If you think this is not plausible, it only means you’re not a good seed but tares that are destined for fire.
It’s the tares that don’t produce, no matter the fertilizer applied, they’re not edible for human consumption.
They increase and expand their domain, but are not productive in good things.
They are full of the works of the flesh in manifestation, no single fruit of the Spirit to see on their trees.
Now is the time that heaven is expecting fruit from all the convert, the harvest is ripe, the harvester is ready to gather souls into eternal life, you don’t say, because your parents are pastors who works for God, remember Absalom, who the father was a man after God’s heart, he died young for rebellious against the anointed of God, even though he was the father.
If you think that you don’t need salvation on your own, for your parents are praying for you, you are being fooled by Satan’s lies.
Those who rely on Father Abraham’s righteousness shall be disappointed on that day, for God can raise children for him from the stones.
The faith of a Father can’t redeem his children; everyone is on his own when we stand before the judgment seat.
God is angry with sinners every day. He has set a day aside for visitation and judgment. It is repentance that can make you escape and justify you from God’s wrath.
The harvest is ripe; it’s either justification or condemnation. It’s the fruit on your trees that will decide.
Some lives are being cut short because when the owner of the garden visited, he couldn’t find any fruit on it, or instead of sweet grapes, it was a wild grape that’s not fit for consumption.
Any tree that God has not planted shall also be rooted up; the seed of rebellion planted by the devil shall meet their dead ends to give account of what they used their life to achieve.
You don’t know when the avenger of blood will visit, if he can’t find you covered with the blood in the place of refuge, definitely he will cut you down.
God knows who will repent and who will not; he gives grace for each person to amend their way.
Those who died young will not repent even if God increases their lifespan; he cut their life short so they won’t pollute others and multiply the decadence of the world.
The trees that weren’t planted by God won’t be able to bring forth the fruits for repentance, for they’re not given the grace; it’s only the trees planted by God that the grace shall be multiplied for them to bring the produce of the spirit to give pleasure to God.
The trees planted by the devil when men slept don’t have the life of God, even if the resurrection and life speak, they won’t hear for they are dead on arrival, they can’t bring forth the fruits of the spirit, it’s only the works of the flesh that’ll come in full manifestation.
While men slept, the enemy came to plant his own seed, in his own likeness, but the time of harvest will make the difference, as the reaper comes and finds things that don’t bring glory to God, they shall be removed and cast into the fire of hell.
Some trees are given one more chance to adjust and put more fertilizer to produce, their years of life might be increased for them to produce the fruit meant for repentance and bring more souls to the kingdom, if they don’t still perform, the judgment of God will descend on them and God will require from them what they used their life to achieve for the kingdom.
Prayer: Father Lord, when you called, let my soul respond to your voice, and answer to justification, in Jesus name amen.
