I never knew you

“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’
(Matthew 7:21-23)

I was just thinking again about the above verses.

There is something that never ceases to amaze me about the verses. There are many wolves in sheep's clothes out there today that are convinced by their own counterfeit miracles that are accompanied by the preaching of a perverted gospel. The shocking thing is that they still won't "get it" to the point they will seek to try and argue with Jesus Himself when they are standing before Him to be judged. They remind me a bit of the rich man trying to argue with Abraham while in hell in Luke Chapter 16:

"And he said, ‘No, father Abraham; but if one goes to them from the dead, they will repent.’ (see verse 30)

Talk about totally "missing it"...what a picture of so many today that are doing false signs and wonders in Jesus' name while perverting His Gospel to literally a different gospel.

You have to be pretty full of yourself to reach that sort of self delusion.

You also have to be very careful about the “Dangers of signs and wonders”

Signs and wonders do not always necessarily mean a ministry or a message is inspired by God or sharing the true Gospel of Jesus.
