Depart From Me


Matthew 7:20-23 ESV
20 Thus you will recognize them by their fruits. 
21   “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22   On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name? ’ 23   And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness. ’ 

It doesn't matter what you say, but what you do and why. He tells us here He recognizes and looks for the fruit.  Working any other plan than His is not a good idea in the long run.
