Matthew 7:21-27

Williams(i) 21 Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will get into the kingdom of heaven, but only those who practice doing the will of my Father in heaven. 22 Many will say to me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, was it not in your name that we prophesied, and in your name that we drove out demons, and in your name that we did many wonder-works?' 23 And then I will say to them openly, 'I never knew you at all. Go away from me, you who practiced doing wrong.' 24 "So everyone who listens to my words and practices their teaching, will be like a prudent man who built his house on a rocky foundation. 25 And the rain fell, and the rivers rose, and the winds blew and beat against that house, but it did not fall, for its pillars had been laid on a rocky foundation. 26 And anyone who listens to my words and does not practice their teaching, will be like an imprudent man who built his house on sand. 27 And the rain fell, and the rivers rose, and the wind blew and beat against that house, and it collapsed, and the wreck of it was complete."
