Jesus said that we can recognize the genuine worthiness of a person or group by observing the quality of what they produce. Specifically, he said:

(Luke 6:43-45 NKJV)

“For a good tree does not bear bad fruit, nor does a bad tree bear good fruit. For every tree is known by its own fruit. For men do not gather figs from thorns, nor do they gather grapes from a bramble bush. A good man out of the good treasure of his heart brings forth good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart brings forth evil.”
