Matthew 7:21 - Forerunner Commentary

Matthew 7:21

19 ^aEvery tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire.

20 Therefore by their fruits you will know them.

I Never Knew You

21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ^a‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who ^bdoes the will of My Father in heaven.

22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we ^anot prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’

23 And ^athen I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; ^bdepart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’

Build on the Rock

24 “Therefore ^awhoever hears these sayings of Mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who built his house on the rock:

25 and the rain descended, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house; and it did not fall, for it was founded on the rock.

Matthew 7:21-23

And we know from I John 3:4 that sin is the transgression of God's law. So these are lawbreakers. Now, the people Jesus was referring to here, they actually thought they were worshipping God, and that they were acceptable to Him.
