And the "Will of God" is no more than to believe on the one He sent, Jesus.

21. Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father who is in heaven. (Matt 7:21)


​So let us fill the will of God.
Good word from our Lord.

Heres a few others where "Lord, Lord" is at which could also be helpful.

Starting off with the one you posted


Mat 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

Mat 7: 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

here was the issue,

Mat 7: 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Mat 7:24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

Mat 7: 25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

Mat 7::26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:

Mat 7:27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

An the context being them which acknowledge him (because they say unto him "Lord, Lord")

Mat 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

Even though many will acknowledge him as Lord Lord, as the foolish (which hear and do not do) adress him the same

Mat 7: 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

He professes he does not know them and will profess to to these to depart from him "ye that work iniquity"

Mat 7: 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye (((that))) work iniquity.

Whereas here Paul says,

2 Ti 2:19 ((Nevertheless)) the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal, The Lord knoweth them that are his. And, Let every one ((that)) nameth the name of Christ (((depart from))) iniquity

So he knoweth them that are his, and Paul tells them (who name his name) to depart from iniquity

It would be far better to name his name and depart ((from)) iniquity then to name his name and be asked to depart ((from)) him for working it.

Mat 7: 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart (((from me))) ye that (((work iniquity))).

Because it says, he gave himself to redeem us from all iniquity

Titus 2:14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works.

God sent Jesus first to bless in this manner

Acts 3:26 Unto you first God, having raised up his Son Jesus, sent him to bless you, in turning away every one of you from his iniquities.

Following the same theme in blessing you is in turning every one of you from his iniquities

As Paul saying,

Romans 6:10 ...as ye have yielded your members servants to uncleanness and to iniquity unto iniquity; even so now yield your members servants to righteousness unto holiness.

Turn away from the same, or from yielding yourselves unto iniquity and begin yielding your members to righteousness

Even as the grace of God teaches us the same thing

Titus 2:11 For the grace of God that bringeth salvation hath appeared to all men,

Titus 2:12 Teaching us that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly, righteously, and godly, in this present world;

Lord Lord is shown in those who do not do as he says

Luke 6:46 And why call ye me, Lord, Lord, and do not the things which I say?

And here showing not everyone who says to him Lord, Lord shall enter the Kingdom...

Mat 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

And of those who do the will of God are shown considered as family

Mark 3:35 For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.

And this is the will of God also

1 Thes 4:3
For this is the will of God, even your sanctification, that ye should abstain from fornication:

Which would also make sense of this as well (along with)

Heb 2:11
For both he that sanctifieth and they who are sanctified are all of one: for which cause he is not ashamed to call them brethren,

Theres a few for you, maybe these would be helpful to your study

I think there's 2 parts to this
Mat: 7 21-23
[SUP]21 [/SUP]“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. [SUP]22 [/SUP]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?’ [SUP]23 [/SUP]Then I will tell them plainly, ‘I never knew you. Away from me, you evildoers!’


Lots of focus on how much we know God but Jesus says here, I never knew YOU.


I wonder if that can be cross referenced with what Paul said here?

Galations 4:9
But now that you have come to know God, or rather to be known by God,

Try to "fill" it as you may. In my book, only One has "FILLED" the Will of God. Those who are found IN CHRIST are counted as 'joint fillers' on account of Christ and not due to themselves.

Shows who he dont know and knows even in these two alone (and even in the context of iniquity)

Mat 7: 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew (((you)))
depart from me, ye
(((that))) work iniquity.

Whereas here Paul says,

2 Ti 2:19 ((Nevertheless)) the foundation of God standeth sure, having this seal,
The Lord knoweth them (((that are))) his.
And, Let every one ((that)) nameth the name of Christ depart from iniquity

Matthew 12:50 For whoever does the will of my Father in heaven is my brother and sister and mother.”

Hosea 6:6 For I desire mercy, not sacrifice, and acknowledgment of God rather than burnt offerings.

Matthew 12:7 If you had known what these words mean, ‘I desire mercy, not sacrifice,’ you would not have condemned the innocent.

Will
1.a. To decide on or intend: He can finish the race if he wills it.
b. To yearn for; desire: "She makes you will your own destruction" (George Bernard Shaw).
c. To decree, dictate, or order: believed that the outcome was willed by the gods.

2. To induce or try to induce by sheer force of will: We willed the sun to come out.
3.a. To grant in a legal will; bequeath: willed his fortune to charity.
b. To order to direct in a legal will: She willed that her money be given to charity.

some people right now (most people on earth) don't know Yahweh nor Yahshua.

they argue a lot against the Word of God (the BIBLE/ TORAH/ SCRIPTURE) and against those who

hold to the WORD by GRACE bestowed in JESUS through FAITH, a sheer GIFT FROM YAHWEH (GOD).

they argue every day, many times a day here on the forum.

they spread a false gospel. like a still born baby or a body laying on the pavement not moving, not breathing.

test everything, as only Yahweh through Yahshua can open anyone's eyes and mind to the TRUTH.

in the assembly of ekklesia, they would not be allowed to participate in worship services after one or two warnings.

it is not feasible(apparently) to do that on the internet (although some sites do - the advantage is they allow no false gospel. the only disadvantage (if that's what it is) is a lot fewer participants. oh, all the rest of the world, the worldly and carnal people, can still , Yahweh Willing , receive the Truth in Love, Hope, Faith, and Joy , by the Grace of Yahweh; only they can't cause dissension in the meetings of upright believers.

Yes, who see Him and believe or trust what He has taught us to do will have eternal life.

Matthew 5:43-48 “You have heard that it was said, ‘Love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. ... (It takes great faith to do this)

I have to say that if this verse doesn't give you pause, you need to check your pulse. :) I am challenged by this verse. Am I doing Your will? Am I living for You or for myself? Do I know You, seek You, desire You or do I live a life of religion and rules, having the appearance of salvation and no victory or true life? This Scripture and the one in James that says that for the one who knows what he ought to do and not do it, for him it is sin. Those are the two that give me pause and make me take true account of my life and my walk.

Its a strange dichotomy but in truth if this verse concerns you then you don't need to be concerned.

We can compare the who's together as well

Will everyone enter?

Mat 7:21Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven;
but he that doeth the will of my Father who is in heaven.

Will Many be entering?

Mat 7:22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Little flock is also shown

Luke 12:32
Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.

We have...

Not everyone will enter, Kingdom
Many will depart from him,
But he says fear not "little flock"

Would little flock be the opposite of a large flock?

You know what I mean, when I wrote fill, I mean follow the Lord Jesus Christ, because it is God's will that we do that, but have you do that, or are you just one, of those, who cal Lord, Lord, but live in the joys of this life, like most of the people's are?

There was nothing wrong in my writing, but some how you turn it to look so, by the Holy spirit, or by the flesh?

Mat 7:13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
Mat 7:14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
Mat 7:15 Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves.

My opinion is that little flock is a literal meaning. Not many people are going to make it to the Kingdom of Heaven because of the corrupted believes we follow today.

Who rely loves the Lord, let the one go and sell his extra part to shared to those who had nothing, and follow him.

21. Jesus said unto him, If thou wouldest be perfect, go, sell that which thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come, follow me. (Matt 19:21)

Who had the treasure in heaven?
