“Repent, for the Kingdom of Heaven is near!” John said. “A tree is judged by the fruit it bears and every tree that doesn’t bear fruit will be cut down and thrown into the fire. Don’t think because you were born into a certain family, you will be spared.” John said these things that people would understand the need for repentance from their sins and change their way of living.
