Matthew 7:19-24

191Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20So then, you will 2know them 3by their fruits.

21“4Not 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 will enter. 225Many will say to Me on 6that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name, and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many 7miracles?’ 23And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; 8leave Me, you who practice lawlessness.’

24“Therefore, 9everyone who hears these words of Mine, and 10acts on them, will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.
