Not Every One-DD 7/12/2010

"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter." Matt 7:21

Beloved, professing Christ is easy to do. One only need say it in order to have a profession made. In this life there are many that profess to be and do any number of things, but that does not necessarily make those professions true. A profession alone does not a Christian make.

Jesus tells us that there must be some action associated with the words. Has it not been translated and passed down as human wisdom that actions speak louder than words? The terrible fact of the matter is that not everyone that claims to be a Christian will see heaven. It may be in fact that the person that sits next to you in the pews may not be your neighbor in heaven. Jesus has said, "Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left. Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left," Matt 24:40-41.

To be forewarned is to be forearmed. Let us busy ourselves doing the will of God.

In Revival,

Lee
