Matthew 7:21-23

New International Reader's Version

True and False Disciples

²¹ “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven. Only those who do what my Father in heaven wants will enter. ²² Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord! Lord! Didn’t we prophesy in your name? Didn’t we drive out demons in your name? Didn’t we do many miracles in your name?’ ²³ Then I will tell them clearly, ‘I never knew you. Get away from me, you who do evil!’
