7 Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come? 8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
See also Matthew 3:9 and discussion at Children of Abraham — is it essential to be descended from a literal Adam to have salvation in Jesus Christ, in light of this statement by Jesus himself?
