Matthew 3:8
“Therefore produce fruit worthy of repentance!”
What does Matthew 3:8 mean?
John the Baptist was calling people to show that their change of heart was real through their actions, not just their words. When we genuinely turn away from something, it shows in how we actually live: in our choices, our kindness, how we treat others, and where we direct our energy. This isn't about earning God's approval through perfection, but about letting an honest shift in our hearts naturally overflow into a different way of being in the world.
