A Warning
(Luke 13.26,27)
21 Not everyone who calls me their Lord will get into the kingdom of heaven. Only the ones who obey my Father in heaven will get in. 22 On the day of judgment many will call me their Lord. They will say, “We preached in your name, and in your name we forced out demons and worked many miracles.” 23 (A) But I will tell them, “I will have nothing to do with you! Get out of my sight, you evil people!”

Away from me, you evildoers!’(F)
