THE BELIEVER IS GOD’S TREE
Do you not see how God compares a good word to
a good tree? Its root is firm and its branches are in
the sky; it yields its fruit in every season by God’s
leave. God gives people parables so that they may
take heed. But an evil word is like an evil tree torn
out of the earth, possessing no stability. God will
strengthen the faithful with His steadfast Word,
both in this life and the hereafter. He leads the
wrongdoers astray. He accomplishes what He
pleases (14:24-27).
