"Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, 'Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' And then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'" (Mt 7:21-23)
How many people claim the name of God, but still do not do the will of God? This is one of many verses that Christ speaks of us, christians, disciples of Christ, needing to be followers and doers and not just claim His name and accept what He has done for us. We are a body, but only the parts that function do any good. If we have a deformity or have lost the ability to use something that is a part of our body, God will restore that when we stand before Him and rid us of our deformity. As is what He will do to the body of the church. When we stand before Him, if we did not function the way we were called to, we will be thrown away. God will only keep the parts of the body that really served Him. Christians today don't understand this, and it is on my heart to make it known. It is time for us to stand up and make a difference.
