Demonstrate What You Believe

Matt. 7:21 "Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven."

Some who address Jesus Christ as Lord are not home free, even if they  think they are.

"There's a reason for that. It's not that He means for us to work our way into heaven - no.  God forgiving us is a free gift.  It's an act of grace purchased by the death of His Son at the Cross.
What He's saying is that when we accept Him into our hearts, our lives are supposed to be different.  Our lives should bear fruit.  If they don't, then there's something drastically wrong.".   Berni Dymet

The challenge for you and me:  What we believe, is demonstrated by what we do!
