Not everyone who says to Me, Lord, Lord, shall enter the kingdom - TopicsExpress



          

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 Matt.7:21 This statement abolishes our general concept and definition of who is saved. We have taught and believed that all you have to do is confess a sinners prayer, and you are ensured a secure place in heaven. We have neglected or placed no emphasis on keeping His commands. This counterfeit grace leads many astray, causing them to make light of obedience. Jesus said those who will be in heaven are those who confess and do the will of God, thus keeping the commands of God. True grace has been given to empower us to obey what He demands of us. The writer of Hebrews said it best: Let us have grave, by which we may serve God acceptably Heb 12:28. Grace empowers us to serve God in an acceptable manner, which is in accordance with His will. - John Bevere Under Cover
