Matthew 3:9-10
9 Do not say to yourselves, “We are in the family of Abraham. God will surely not punish us.” Listen! God can take these stones and use them to make children for Abraham! 10 You are like trees that have bad fruit. God has an axe ready to use. He will cut down every tree that does not make good fruit. He will throw those trees into the fire.
3:7The Pharisees were a group of Jews. They thought that they obeyed all God's rules. The Sadducees were also an important group of Jewish leaders at the time of Jesus.
