2nd Sunday in January

Matthew 7:21-27

"Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven; but
he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven.

"Many will say to Me on that day, 'Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in Your name,
and in Your name cast out demons, and in Your name perform many miracles?' And
then I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice
lawlessness.'

"Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine, and acts upon them, may be compared
to a wise man, who built his house upon the rock. And the rain descended, and the
floods came, and the winds blew, and burst against that house; and yet it did not
fall, for it had been founded upon the rock.
"And everyone who hears these words of Mine, and does not act upon them, will be
like a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand. And the rain descended,
and the floods came, and the winds blew, and burst against that house; and it fell,
and great was its fall." Matthew 7:21-27 (Jesus speaking to the multitudes -- NAS)

Questions:

Not everyone who says to Jesus...."Lord...Lord" will enter the kingdom of heaven;
but he who does what?

According to Jesus, what will happen to many who claim to follow Christ, even those
who cast out demons or work miracles in His name?

Jesus will declare to them...."I never _______ you..."

Easy-to-Read Version:
"Not every person that says that I am his Lord will enter the kingdom of heaven.
The only people that will enter the kingdom of heaven are those people that do
the things that my Father in heaven wants.
"On the last day many people will say to me, 'You are our Lord! We spoke for you.
And for you we forced out demons and did many miracles.' Then I will tell those
people clearly, 'Go away from me, you people that do wrong. I never knew you.'
"Every person that hears these things I say and obeys these things is like a wise
man. The wise man built his house on rock. It rained hard and the water rose. The
winds blew and hit that house. But the house did not fall, because the house was
built on rock.
"But the person that hears the things I teach and does not obey those things is
like a foolish man. The foolish man built his house on sand. It rained hard, the
water rose, and the winds blew and hit that house. And the house fell with a loud
noise." Matthew 7:21-27 (ERV)
