In the world we live in, look-alikes are everywhere. Many businesses struggle because of imitation products, often losing significant market share to copies. Branded apparel, in particular, has countless look-alikes. From a distance, they appear identical—sometimes even more attractive than the original. But on closer inspection, they lack the quality, substance, and authenticity of the real thing.   We see a similar truth in Matthew 21 , when Jesus approached the fig tree.
