Track 30 in Songs Set E – Matthew 7:22-23 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?’ And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’ (Last week’s verse is also part of this song. Matthew 7:21 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.)
Many will do things in the name of Jesus that look like fruit that a believer bears. However, their hearts are not believing in Jesus, nor having been transformed and given new life. Those who do not do the will of the Father will be cast away from God.
