Uprooted Trees

"Every tree that my Father has not planted will be uprooted." (Matt 15:13)

These words also conversely imply that those "planted" or "rooted" by God and in God are the only ones not to be "pulled up" or "uprooted."

Syllogism

1. Whoever is uprooted has not been rooted by God
2. John was uprooted after his profession of Christ
3. John was not rooted by God
