What if going to church, serving, praying, and even doing “Christian things” still isn’t enough? In Matthew 7:21-29, Jesus ends the Sermon on the Mount with one of the most ...sobering warnings in all of Scripture. Not everyone who calls Him “Lord” truly knows Him. Real faith is more than words, it produces obedience, transformation, and a life built on the solid foundation of Christ.
