Jesus said," not everyone who says to me ,Lord ,Lord shall enter the kingdom of heaven,but he who does the will of my father in heaven". This warning should cause us to carefully consider our relationship with the Lord and the carrying out of the duty he has placed before us.Why? because many who claim to be His followers, who claim to be working on his behalf,claim to be working in his name will be rejected by him,He will tell them I never knew you.There are many claiming to be doing the Lords will ,but in fact are serving their own agendas.
God's desire is that none shall perish, that all shall receive salvation. But you are chosen only when you learn and accepts the truth of the gospel. Salvation is out there, it has been served and offered but the chosen are those who will accept and believe its truths.The truth Jesus explains is what God reveals through his holy word, the bible; and to be acceptable unto God you must accept his word as the only source of truth. After learning the fundamentals of God's truth, you must repent. The Lord is patient with you, not wanting any to parish, but the book of Acts tells us that everyone must come to repentance, there is no exceptions, God wants everyone to repent.
Then you must remain faithful,to His will. You cannot allow the will and ways of others to determine your level of faithfulness to the duty God has called you to, and chosen you for. Many often get discouraged and give up on what they proclaim God has called them to and chosen them for. We need to decide if what we are doing is His will or our want...
