Titus of Bostra, on Luke 6:43
Titus of Bostra · d. c. A.D. 378
Luke 6:43 · Douay-Rheims
“For there is no good tree that bringeth forth evil fruit; nor an evil tree that bringeth forth good fruit.”
On this verse:
“But take not these words to thyself as an encouragement to idleness, for the tree is moved conformably to its nature, but thou hast the exercise of free will; and every barren tree has been ordained for some good, but thou wert created unto the good work of virtue.”
