Does Christ Know You

 Matthew 7:21 
"Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter
into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the 
will of my Father which is in heaven" 

   Christ tells us here that it will not be enough to call Him our Saviour, only by word of mouth. It is necessary that we believe in Christ, that we repent of sin, that we live a Holy life, and that we love one another. This is the will of God. Let us take heed in our outward privileges and doings, lest we deceive ourselves, and perish eternally, as multitudes do, with a lie in our right hand.  Let everyone that names the name of Christ, depart from all sin. 
   There are others, whose religion rests in just hearing, and it goes no further, and their heads are filled with empty notions. These two types of hearers are represented as two kinds of builders.  The builders that builds his house on sand, and the builder that builds his house on rock. 
   My Friends, This parable teaches us to hear and do the sayings of the Lord Jesus Christ. Many may say it's hard to do because we are only flesh and blood, but they must be done. If you are going to follow Jesus Christ, you must first believe and let Him in your heart, which is the Holy Spirit that will comfort and guide you on your path. 
Amen!
