Mark 11:12-14, 22-26 (KJV) And on the morrow, when they were come from Bethany, he was hungry:
And seeing a fig tree afar off having leaves, he came, if haply he might find any thing thereon: and when he came to it, he found nothing but leaves; for the time of figs was not yet.
And Jesus answered and said unto it, No man eat fruit of thee hereafter for ever. And his disciples heard it.
And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.

Christians without fruit

Christ act of cursing the tree with His own power hasd created stands as a warning to all churches and yo all Christians. No one can live the law without ministering to others..... Some who think themselves exellent Christians for not understand what constitutes service for God. They plan to study and please themselves. They act only in reference to self.... Those who thus live for self are like the fig tree, which made ever pretension but was fruitless.

Un none title

The reason why our people have not more power is that they profess the truth, but do not practice it. They have but little faith and trust in God. . . . If the mind were stayed upon God and the truth exerted a sanctifying influence upon the heart, self would be hid in Christ. . . .
[Many] have the theory of the truth, but do not feel its power in the soul. The barren fig tree flaunted its pretentious branches in the face of heaven; but when the search for fruit was made by the Redeemer, lo, there was nothing but leaves. Unless there is a thorough work wrought for you as individuals and as a church, the curse of God will as surely come upon you as it fell upon that fruitless tree.—Testimonies for the Church, vol. 4, pp. 613, 614.
