Matthew 7:21-27

I Never Knew You

21 aNot everyone who bsays to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will center the kingdom of heaven, but the one who ddoes the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 eOn that day fmany will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not gprophesy in your name, and cast out demons hin your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ 23 iAnd then will I declare to them, ‘I jnever knew you; kdepart from me, lyou workers of lawlessness.’

Build Your House on the Rock

24 mEveryone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like na wise man who built his house on the rock. 25And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. 26And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like oa foolish man who built his house on the sand. 27And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it.”
