  • From a distance, a leafy fig tree can appear promising-but only a close look determines whether or not the tree bears fruit. On Truth For Life, Alistair Begg warns about similarly appearing spiritually fruitful when merely going through religious motions.

    Is it fair to say that God used Jesus' action to cause us to look closer to see His fruit? When Jesus is examined closer you see the Father? How wonderful our Father is!!!!

    Isaiah 43:10-11
    English Standard Version
    10 “You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord,
    “and my servant whom I have chosen,
    that you may know and believe me
    and understand that I am he.
    Before me no god was formed,
    nor shall there be any after me.
    11 I, I am the Lord,
    and besides me there is no savior.

    We must believe in miracles. Jesus walked, talked and showed miracles. Many today do not truly believe, because they do not believe in miracles. When the antichrist appears many will be deceived unable to discern between miracles and sciences.

    This spring this subject came up with someone I know. My thoughts are that the fig tree is a mirror of the temple priests. For all they are to give nourishment of the living word of god, just like the fig tree that looks like it should give nourishment but instead is just splendor in appearance. Pastor Begg, you have given me more food for thought. In that Jesus is the vine and we are the branches.

      Maybe, looking at the time since Noah up to Jesus, how far the people moved from truth of God to legalism? And how from Jesus to now people have once again moved away from God and love to rules and laws.
