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. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’
Jesus. Matthew 7:21-23. Hi, it’s Nathan, and this is Day 18 of 30 Days Reflecting on the Kingdom. God isn’t looking for great religious people—but for human beings whose lives are molded—guided—by kingdom principles. He’s need interested in a bunch of wonder-workers or courageous preachers. He’s looking for people whose daily lives reflect his good, selfless heart. Whose lives are increasingly moving into harmony with his great heart of faithful love. People who love well—in public and private. People whose first impulse is to give, to care, to love, to embrace, to forgive. People who shoe mercy, kindness, justice—and work to make peace. This is what it means to be *lawful* kingdom people. These are the kinds of folks who will set up shop in Earth 2.0.
