Why will Jesus tell many Christians, "I never knew you; depart from Me"? - Matt

It's awesome that our eternity isn't hinged on our performance but on Him. ALL praise and glory and honor are due Him. Even so, COME Lord Jesus!

What a load of garbage. Your salvation will be judged by what you did on this life. Just "believing' is not enough. You think following Christ's commandments are easy? They are hard - very hard. Ever look at a woman and want to have sex with her, and she's not your wife? Mortal sin. Ever blaspheme? Mortal sin? Ever put people down and make them depressed? Mortal sin (Jesus warned of this at the Sermon on the Mount - that you can "kill" through words). Jesus said words can be your salvation or your damnation. Wake up. Don't be deceived. It's a "narrow" gate for a reason. Don't be fooled into thinking you really don't have to do anything other than "believe." Even demons believe.

Well explained! We are truly saved by grace through faith alone. Workers of iniquity are those who trusted in their own goodness. Workers of righteousness are those who trusted on Jesus.

There's many socalled Christians today who are prophesying, casting out demons, and doing mighty works or so they say... You also need the Holy Spirit to make it to paradise (Romans 8:9, Ephesians 1:11-14, Ephesians 4:30, 2 Corinthians 1:22) and The Holy Spirit helps us to battle temptation (Galatians 16-26).

Saved by grace alone, through faith alone, by Christ alone, known through Scripture alone! This verse should be terrifying to papists, who attempt to attain salvation through their own works. Praise God for His mercy and grace 🙌

Interesting that the "Will of God" is simply to believe in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior. I always thought those passages meant that we need to do "good works", or that "good works" are the "Will of God". Thanks for relieving my burdens!

[@beautiful8056]

This passage is not true! The will of God is to Repent, deny the flesh (deny all wickedness mentioned in the Bible) and give our life to God, which is following Gods way..not our own. Confess with our mouth that Jesus is Lord and be Baptized. May God bless you

Let's keep it simple, they where not Born Again, therefore were not sealed with the Holy Spirit. So is normal for Jesus to say " never knew You" This is great lesson for all those who claimed to be Born Again, because they do miracles and say prophesies etc.

Thank you for making it plain! I think some people who say they believe in faith alone also believe their good works save them...and apparently they must think they're pretty darn good because if we only sin once in our life that sin will send us to hell.

[@FollowTheTrend798]

Works are a result of genuine faith. They don’t save you, but they prove you really do believe. Unless we get into the “baptism” for salvation argument.

[@2Chronicles714_]

If there is no change of conduct the person can claim faith alone a million times but they are not saved until they repent and proove their repentance by their deeds.

[@2Chronicles714_]

You sound like the false teachers Steven Anderson, jacksmack 77 or Norman Diamonte [all grace perverters] It's too late for you to come to repentance just like Esau. Hebrews 12:17 For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.

[@bridienicholls]

Faith without works is dead according to the bible. Our works is resisting temptation daily and denying ourselves while maintaining trust in Jesus. We are to deny the flesh and give up the things we desire and live for the glory of God.

Belief in the wrong object of saving faith never gives Everlasting Life . Jesus shows us in every Evangelistic encounter that His doubtless Guarantee of Everlasting Life - apart from any other condition - is how one is irreversibly born again . Adding to His only condition is fatal to Grace . This is what all in Matthew 7:21-23 have in common .

This is wonderful news to know the truth about Christianity. Many people go to church on Sundays and do good work and claim that their good works are based on what they have done. But the truth is that if they don't truly believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. They must truly believe that God sent him to this earth to save Sinners and his death, burial, and Resurrection from the grave by God. if they truly believe that they will enter eternity in heaven with Jesus forever.

I think in general people like to make things complicated when in reality it's not complicated at all. The main message out of the Bible is we can't save ourselves. But if we a faith and believe Jesus died on the cross for our sins and God raised him from the dead after 3 days, then Jesus is our Lord and Saviour and we have his Gracious gift of eternal life.

[@dansmith9724]

Php 2:12 So then, my beloved, even as you have always obeyed, not only in my presence, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.

[@graftme3168]

​@@dansmith9724The Bible says He died for the forgiveness of sins, but He rose from the dead to give eternal life. Forgiveness of sins broke the barrier between God and man that prevented reconciliation. Now there is no barrier, except unbelief.

[@graftme3168]

​@@inpursuitoftruth4905Read the next verse, " because it is God working in you both to will and do His pleasure." In other words, work outwardly what is already in you. It doesn't mean work FOR salvation, or to KEEP salvation. Salvation is a free gift. Doing the "work" is another story. Justification is a gift received through believing. Sanctification takes work. But, God promised that whatever was not made perfect WILL be made perfect when we are glorified in our new body. That's what is meant by "being saved." We ARE saved (justified), we are BEING saved (sanctified), and WILL be saved (glorified). If you are justified by faith, you WILL be sanctified and glorified. It's a promise. That's what water baptism is about. You are making a confession that you know you have died with Christ and WILL be raised to life. There's no need for water baptism if you don't believe you WILL be raised unto eternal life. Water baptism couldn't be performed until AFTER you were raised from the dead. That would be meaningless of course. So, if you get baptized not believing you WILL be raised unto eternal life, you merely got wet in unbelief. Because baptism is confessing a clear conscience of the position you have in Christ, which is eternal. If it isn't eternal, Jesus failed His mission.

He often says that it takes only Faith to be saved but simultaneously with conversion the new believer has a new attitude against sin of refusing to fight it and hating it

[@robertnieten7259]

If faith alone saves us why repent ? Repentance is an act of obedience we must choose to do as an essential step in salvation after we believe.

[@aramanaod]

@@robertnieten7259 Repent simply mean think again. You are changing your mind from unbelief to believing the Gospel. That is the only context in which it is used. Nowhere, in any literal translation, is it use for "repent of sins". Jesus paid your price. Once you believe you are crucified with Christ and God has judged your sin, I don't believe he revisits it when they occur. It is finished.

[@robertnieten7259]

@aramanaod Thanks for your reply. It's like Paul said to the disciples in Acts ch.19, " Have you recieved the Holy Spirit since you believed ?". If believers recieved the Holy Spirit the moment that they believed then Paul didn't know what he was talking about. Just as physical birth is the end result of a process so is spiritual rebirth. Once we hear the Word and it reveals to our hearts that it is true God doesn't make us turn to Him. We must use our free will to either obey Him or stay as we are. Just because we have come to believe the gospel doesn't mean that we are saved. As Peter said in Acts ch.4," God gives the Holy Spirit to those who obey him". True repentance isn't just mentally asserting that the gospel is true, but in demonstrating our obedience by being water baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. As John the baptist said to the people standing on the shores of the Jordan, " Bring forth fruit meet for repentance"( Matt.3:8). That fruit was and is our faith in action by obeying the command to accompany your belief and repentance with water baptism.

[@aramanaod]

[@robertnieten7259]

@aramanaod I'm sorry but the gospel of salvation isn't hearing the Word, believing, and you're sealed with the Holy Spirit. Being saved is about being born again and just as physical birth is the end result of a process so is spiritual rebirth. All of the apostles, including Paul, taught that salvation is about hearing the Word, believing, repentance,water baptism, and then praying to recieve the Holy Spirit. *Acts ch.2:38 and Acts ch.19. There are only three times in scripture that tell us of instances to where believers recieved the Holy Spirit and what happened the moment they recieved, Acts ch.2,10,and ch.19. The first thing that happened when they recieved the Holy Spirit is that they spoke in tongues to confirm it.

Faith is to have confidence in something, someone..in a promise. Believe is to be fully persuaded that something or someone is true…in a promise. Eternal life is received by “faith alone in Jesus for it”. A Christian is someone that has HEARD His promise of eternal life by faith alone and became FULLY PERSUADED, Believe in Him for His promise of eternal life. The Matthew 7 people were never willing to HEAR His promise and never willing to be FULLY PERSUADED. They are convinced in their efforts/works.. they are not convinced in Jesus alone.

This passage is a warning against those who claim to be followers of Jesus but do not truly believe in him and obey his teachings. It is possible for someone to perform miraculous works in Jesus' name without truly believing in him or having a genuine relationship with him. Jesus is emphasizing the importance of not just outward actions but also inward faith and obedience. An example of inward faith and obedience that demonstrates belief in Jesus as the Son of God could be a willingness to submit to Jesus' authority and teachings, as revealed in the Bible. This could include: Trusting in Jesus for salvation: Believing that Jesus died on the cross for our sins, and trusting in him as our savior. Repenting of sin: Acknowledging our need for forgiveness and turning away from sinful behavior. Loving God and others: Demonstrating love for God by obeying his commandments and showing love to others, as Jesus taught. Following Jesus' example: Seeking to imitate Jesus' character and actions, including his compassion, humility, and service to others. Sharing the gospel: Proclaiming the good news of Jesus Christ and sharing our faith with others. These actions demonstrate a genuine belief in Jesus as the Son of God and a commitment to follow him as Lord and Savior.

Therefore they never truly knew Him and He can't truly know them. This is , in my humble opinion the point of the 7th chapter, top to bottom. The difference between those with an old covenant mentality and those that have accepted The New Covenant Reality. Starting with how we judge the speck in anothers eye, an old covenant judgement. Then, which gate are we entering by, wide road (legalism, good works, religion O. C. M.) or narrow gate of Jesus and His Grace (N.C.R.). Next, your fruit will expose what you believe as the truth, as James says, do you judge others by The Perfect Law of Liberty (Grace the N.C.R.) or by the law (O. C. M.). Even making the point that "you" are a transgressor of the law if that is how you judge others, calls it partiality and a sin.

True disciples, not true believers. Big difference. The Bible literally says that whoever does not work but believes in Jesus is righteous! You are mistaking sanctification for justification. Not the same thing. The Bible also says that a believer will suffer loss of rewards because they didn't "work" but they will be saved. Eternal life is a gift. Work is a choice. Of course there are consequences to sin, but one can never lose ETERNAL life. It can't be called eternal if it can die. You can't be UNborn spiritually any more than you can be UNborn physically.

Also, Jesus was already lifted up on the cross. Since then, He is drawing ALL men unto Himself. That is why He sent His Holy Spirit, to "convict the WORLD of sin, of righteousness, and of judgement." As Romans 1 tells us, God has given ALL men sufficient evidence but some CHOOSE to suppress the truth that they know. And, that's why they get unhinged, because they are living against their very own conscience. God has put the truth in every man's conscience. The choice we must make is to stop suppressing the truth that God has made clear to ALL men, as the Bible says.

The only reason that you think Jesus would tell anyone to 'depart from Him for He doesn't know them' is because 'they' don't know Him. Jesus actually knows everyone. That's one of His qualities that you should certainly know.. The problem is that there are many who don't know Him. The fact is; 'His knowledge' is the most important factor. When the ones "He doesn't know" ... depart to God (fire). God will let these know who Jesus is. "they shall be saved so as by fire". Everyone is forgiven because all are died for by Jesus. The ones who are "saved" are the ones who finally know who Jesus is (they are believers). The most important truth that you should know is that Jesus died for everyone. He took all sin away. Sin in gone because of Jesus. That's why He came. The actual "fools" are the ones that say that 'there is no hope for you in God.' Tell people who Jesus is. God will do the rest. All will eventually know Him. If you don't get the message across to them then God certainly will eventually. The importance of people finding out about Jesus in this life is that it gives God a lot of joy; it pleases Him because "faith pleases Him". As parents; we are pleased when our kids learn. All do eventually learn who Jesus is..."All shall know Him from the least to the greatest". There is no hell; there is only Heaven. "By His knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many."

The problem here is that "workers of lawlessness" IS works. A person gets saved by faith alone. However, the walk of faith requires doing those things that demonstrate it. 1 John 3:4 says that sin is transgression of the Law. Continuing to disobey the Law makes a person a sinner. The definition of repenting is "not sinning." Before Jesus arrived, faith was demonstrated by observing those things YHVH said to observe; his Sabbaths and his feasts. They are all prophetic shadows of the Messiah. Now they serve as memorials to His ministry. Observing renamed sun god festivals are lawlessness. Jesus is the Passover Lamb, not the Easter ham.

When you do come to Jesus, and get to know him and start growing closer to him you will start to do a thing called repentance. You will grieve your sin and you will want to do works. But you will do work out of Love, not out of obligation. When you are doing the work your mind will not be thinking " I'm doing this so God will look upon me with favor and save me" . Instead you will look at someone in need and just help them free of obligation, which is REAL LOVE. You are choosing to Love out of loves sake. God is genuine and wants genuine love and he also wants us to give genuine love JUST LIKE HE DID!! It is the only way to get true love from people. By doing good works you are loving and choosing Jesus because he saved you. You are not working TO be saved. It's beautiful!

It is very plain that Jesus was talking about our good works When the Son of Man comes in his glory, and all the angels with him, jthen he will sit on his glorious throne. 32 Before him kwill be gathered lall the nations, and mhe will separate people one from another as a shepherd separates nthe sheep from the goats. 33 And he will place the sheep on his right, but the goats on the left. 34 Then othe King will say to pthose on his right, ‘Come, you qwho are blessed by my Father, rinherit sthe kingdom tprepared for you ufrom the foundation of the world. 35 For vI was hungry and you gave me food, I was thirsty and you wgave me drink, xI was a stranger and you welcomed me, 36 vI was naked and you clothed me, yI was sick and you zvisited me, aI was in prison and you came to me.’ 37 Then the righteous will answer him, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? 38 And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? 39 And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ 40 And bthe King will answer them, c‘Truly, I say to you, as you did it to one of the least of these dmy brothers,6 you did it to me.’ 41 “Then he will say to those on his left, e‘Depart from me, you fcursed, into gthe eternal fire prepared for hthe devil and his angels. 42 For iI was hungry and you gave me no food, I was thirsty and you gave me no drink, 43 I was a stranger and you did not welcome me, naked and you did not clothe me, sick and in prison and you did not visit me.’ 44 Then they also will answer, saying, ‘Lord, when did we see you hungry or thirsty or a stranger or naked or sick or in prison, and did not minister to you?’ 45 Then he will answer them, saying, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did not do it to one of the least of these, jyou did not do it to me.’ 46 And these will go away kinto eternal punishment, but the righteous kinto leternal life.”

This is so simple it's crazy. Who was he talking to most likely at that moment. He was talking to people who were Pharisees or Sadducees a member of the religious leaders of the Jews. They clearly didn't recognize who Jesus was and he was warning them because they didn't know what they were doing. This analogy still applies in the church though because there are many who are few sitters and are not gospel winners. Not that I'm saying everybody is going to necessarily bring at least one person into the faith through evangelism however there are many who will go and outwardly appear to be conforming but inside they have not changed and they have not actually put their faith in christ. And I think this is a warning to us because we tend to think if you're in church you must be Christian and the true faith is not how one can forms outwardly it's how one is transformed inwardly

[@danielnelson9411]

There is a huge problem with the title, 'Why will Jesus tell many Christians, "I never knew you; depart from Me"?' They are not Christians. If you take the Sermon on the Mount in context, without adding anything to it, one can easily tell what Messiah is meaning in Matthew 7:21-23. At the beginning of the Sermon on the Mount, Messiah tells us to keep God's Law. (Matthew 5:17-20) Next, He expounds on the Law, showing us that the requirements of the Law are far more that what we thought. Then at the end of the Sermon on the Mount, Messiah gives us a glimpse of what it will be like at the Second Coming. He tells us that there will be those who call him Lord but are not saved. He tells us that they are not saved because they are practicing Lawlessness. (Matthew 7:21-23) They knew He was the Messiah and trusted Him to save them but they did not do what He told them. They did not keep God's Law. The very Law that will be written on every believers heart. (Jeremiah 31:33) A Christian is someone whose behavior and heart reflects Jesus Christ. Messiah kept the Law perfectly. Although we may not keep the Law perfectly, we should still be keeping the Law. After all Messiah did AND He told us to. Shalom!

[@ljjdcm]

“On that day” is referring to when he comes back in judgment, and all the unbelievers are trying to con him that they were believers when they weren’t. This is not talking about Christians when they die.

[@jerjerrybear]

But if they never knew Him, why did they get power from God to prophecy and spiritual powers?

[@robertnieten7259]

This teaching reminds me of the parable of the Ten virgins specifically the five unwise virgins. The Lord also told them, " I know you not". We know that this definition of" to know" doesn't mean that the Lord , doesn't know each and everyone of us better than we know our self, but a more intimate form of knowing. Many times when the Word says to believe " in" or " on" the Lord Jesus Christ the original Greek word is "eis" which means to believe " into" Christ. This is our belief/ faith in action through obedience. What did Peter say to the sanhedrin in Acts ch 4, " God gives the Holy Spirit to those who obey him". I believe that those whom the Lord tells that He doesn't know Him are told that because their spirit has never been joined with His Holy Spirit by them recieving the Holy Spirit. There are three instances,three repetitions are very important in scripure, to where we are given events to where believers recieve the Holy Spirit and what happened the moment that they recieved, Acts ch.2,10, and ch.19. In each instance the first thing that happened to confirm that they had recieved the Holy Spirit is that they spoke in tongues. Lastly, the five foolish virgins were not " known" by the bridegroom because they had not taken on His name by it being called over them during water baptism.

[@aramanaod]

That parable is for Israel. The parables/analogies in Matthew 25 are Jesus saying, after he tells them in Matt 24 that they missed his coming, not to miss it again. They are examples of being watchful for him vs missing him again. You are works and will hear those words.

[@robertnieten7259]

@aramanaod Pauls' statement makes it clear that the parables were not just for Israel: " There is neither jew nor gentile, male nor female, bond nor free, for you are all one in Christ Jesus". " Then if ye be Christs' then are ye Abrahams' seed, heirs according to the promise"( Gal.3:28,29).

How can those people who do not believe and have no faith (did not do the will of the Father) still were able to perform miracles?

[@2Chronicles714_]

John 10:1-5,14,26-27 Truly truly, I say to you, he who does not enter the sheepfold by the door but climbs in by another way that man is a thief and a robber. 2 But he who enters by the door is the shepherd of the sheep. 3To him the gatekeeper opens. The sheep hear his voice, and he calls his own sheep by name and leads them out. 4When he has brought out all his own, he goes before them, and the sheep follow him, for they know his voice. 5A stranger they will not follow, but they will flee from him, for they do not know the voice of strangers.14 Iam the good shepherd. I know my own and my own know me, 26but you do not believe because you are not among my sheep. 27My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. Only those who have a changed life by repentance are those who are Jesus's sheep and follow him. Jesus uses the word "knows" as in an intimate way just like that word is used throughout scripture. Matt 7:21-23 Why does Jesus say Depart from me I never "knew" you ye that work iniquity He's not double minded The works mentioned are works that He told us to do Matt 10:28 John 14:12 Mark 16:15-17 Paul says do works to show your repentance in Acts 26:20. Clearly they had some type of knowledge of God to do those works. They claimed they "believed in Him" He doesn't say you trusted in your works. He doesn't say I knew you once and you later rejected me. He says I never "knew" you (in scripture "knew" means intimately) They never changed their minds about their sinfulled life (repented) of their sins. They didn't have a personal relationship with Him. They were pointing to their works as evidence they knew Him. They believed repentance is works or that's it means of unbelief only. God didn't know them because they hadn't been regenerated, forgiven of their sins, and died in their iniquity as unrepentant sinners. Jesus would never refer to the works he instructed us to do as workers of iniquity or lawlessness WHAT IS THE WILL OF THE FATHER? The Greek word that is translated as “does” is poieo. The word appears 598 times in the New Testament. It has been demonstrated that the Greek word for “does” refers to action that performs an activity. This word is a verb and not a noun.Since poieo is a verb, we must also determine the meaning of its tense, voice and mood. The tense of poieo in Matthew 7:21 is in the present tense.Poieo in the present tense refers to action that is ongoing. For example, when Jesus said, “he who does the will” He was referring to ongoing action at that moment in time. In other words he who is doing the Father's will.The Greek word for “does” is a Greek present participle which implies ongoing behavior. The person who does the will of God once in a while does not qualify.Jesus is describing someone who habitually does the will of the Father. Poieo is also in the active voice, which means that when Jesus said, “.he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter” He was saying that the individual must be performing the action. A life of obedience (present tense “do” [Ποιωv] for continuous action) to his will is, in fact, the definition of righteousness. when Jesus says “. . . but he who does the will of My Father who is in heaven will enter.” The word “does” is a present, active, participle verb which means that those who continuously are doing the will of the Father go to heaven. Jesus was referring to a pattern of life and not perfect obedience. The character of true Christians is that they sin less and less as they mature in their faith..

[@michaelsinger2921]

May as well rejoin Roman Catholicism or some other religion that mates faith with works as conditions for salvation. I fear you are mixing salvation, which is by faith alone, with discipleship or sanctification, which addresses the issue of growing maturity of the believer. The latter involves the Holy Spirit working within the born again believer to make him or her more like Christ. See 1 Thess. 5:23-24. In addition to the Scriptures cited in the video, John 6:28-29 is helpful: Then they said to Him, "What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?" Jesus answered and said to them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent."

[@2Chronicles714_]

@Michael Singer Paul and James say show evidence of your repentance by your works. Acts 26:20 But shewed first unto them of Damascus, and at Jerusalem, and throughout all the coasts of Judaea, and then to the Gentiles, that they should repent and turn to God, and do works meet for repentance. James 2:14-26 What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him? 15If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, 16And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstandingye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit? 17Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. 18Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. 19Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. 20But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? 21Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? 22Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? 23And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. 24Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only. 25Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way? 26For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. We are saved by grace through repentance which is the consequence of faith.

@troy kidwell So toss out the book of James because he says without works faith is dead. Then we must toss out Ephesians 2:8-9 What Paul says about works in Ephesians 2:9 and the Apostle James chapter 2 about faith without works is dead.The misunderstanding of Ephesians 2:9 Paul is saying any works regardless of how "good" they are, are not enough to inherit Heaven. Paul has never said we ARE NOT to do any works. That would contradict Jesus. We are to do works in Jesus name. Paul makes it clear in Verse 10 For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do. James and Paul are on the page. Faith without works (evidence) is dead (meaningless) James 2:14-17 What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save. In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. With your thinking we must also toss out Acts 26:20 First to those in Damascus, then to those in Jerusalem and in all Judea, and then to the Gentiles, I preached that they should REPENT and TURN TO GOD and demonstrate their repentance by their deeds. God will toss out anyone who adds to or removes anything from His word.
