“Depart From Me I Never Knew You”…who is Jesus talking to???

“I Never Knew You..”

Matthew 7:21 – 23

“Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and in your name drive out demons and perform many miracles?’ Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’

Of all the scripture that comes to mind, perhaps the saddest and most fearful of all is the very words of Jesus Himself found in Matthew 7 and verse 21 – 23. Here, Jesus tells us that at the second coming, there will be some people who will fully expect to ascend to heaven with Him in the clouds of glory, but He will have to tell them; “….depart from Me, I never knew you.” Can you imagine those words falling from our Savior’s lips? “depart from Me, I never knew you!”

Make no mistake about it; there will be people on the Day of Judgment that are going to be expecting to go to heaven, yet instead of inheriting the Kingdom,they are going to hear those saddening words of Christ; “Depart from Me, I never knew you.” There will be deacons, Sabbath school teachers, Elders, Pastors, TV evangelists, miracle workers along with countless others (ie. all church people!) that will be turned away–and all because they lacked one very necessary qualification; they didn’t truly know the Lord and so He will be forced to say to them, “…depart from Me, for I never knew you.”

The people Jesus will say He “never knew” will be those who never felt the need to truly “know Him” yet these are people who “think” they are going to heaven!

Well, Would They?

Is there any sick among you? If so let them call the elders of the church..............then what? Will the elders KNOW what to do?

Divine Relationships

God sends Divine Relationships to help and strengthen our walk with Him. They are few, so be aware and take advantage of what He has sent you. I'm not speaking of "fellow laborers", but true divine relationships!

Choose Who???

Revival is possible IF the church could be awakened! If you study the "lethargic" side of the church, then look at the unchurched, you will come to understand that reaching the unchurched would result in a greater FERVOR for Christ Jesus.

Perhaps we need to quit laboring so hard and long among the cynical!!!
