Bible Answer: Jer 5:1 God says, "Before you were born, Jeremiah, I set you aside for My use. So don't worry about the effect of your message. You just give the message." —J. Vernon McGee's Thru The Bible Matt 7:21 Jesus exposed those people who sounded religious and did religious deeds but had no personal relationship with him. Not sincere followers who had come to him for salvation, they were masquerading as disciples. These people knew in their hearts that they were false. —Life Application Bible Commentary EdB |
