Matthew 7:21 - 7:23
Gospel of MatthewSteve Gregg
In this talk, Steve Gregg discusses the stern warnings given by Jesus to his disciples in Matthew 7:21-23. Jesus warns that not everyone who calls him "Lord" will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but only those who follow the narrow path and are obedient to God. Gregg emphasizes that these warnings apply to everyone, including those in the church who may be involved in religious activities but are not truly following God. He encourages listeners to take these warnings seriously and examine their own lives to ensure they are on the narrow path to salvation.
