Just calling oneself a Christian is not enough
Just knowing to call upon the name of Jesus is not enough

There needs to be a real relationship

This is not judging this is a warning.

21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.22 Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name and in your name drive out demons and in your name perform many miracles?’23 Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’ – Matthew 7:21-23

The day that I understood this back in 2004, was the day that I desired not only to know Jesus, but to be known by Jesus.

I personally dont want to hear Him say to me, “Get away from me, I never knew you.”

Having a real relationship with Jesus Christ is important.

More important than many might think.

Relationship, not religion, is important.
