In Matthew 21:18–27, Jesus curses a fig tree that looks healthy but bears no fruit—an unforgettable image that reveals how appearance without transformation leads to emptiness. In this message, “Following = Fruit,” we learn that true followers of Jesus don’t just look the part; they trust His authority and allow His Spirit to produce lasting fruit in their lives.

Through this passage, we’re reminded that faith without obedience is hollow, and real growth begins when we surrender control and let Jesus change us from the inside out. The call is simple but profound: spend time with Jesus, be changed by Jesus, and live like Jesus—because following always produces fruit. www.movementcolumbus.com
