Where does it say he was talking to 'all' professing fake believers in Matthew 7?
In Luke 13 he doesn't mention the matter of never knowing them to that group.
25“Once the head of the house gets up and shuts the door, and you begin to stand outside and knock on the door, saying, ‘Lord, open up to us!’ then He will answer and say to you, ‘I do not know where you are from.’ 26“Then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in Your presence, and You taught in our streets’; 27and He will say, ‘I tell you, I do not know where you are from; DEPART FROM ME, ALL YOU EVILDOERS.’ - Luke 13:25-27
These particular group of Jewish evildoers will make no claim of doing miracles in his name but will be trying to persuade Jesus to give them entry to the kingdom based on their association with him in the streets of their cities. No mention of Jesus never knowing this group. We can't add that to the passage to suit a particular doctrinal preference. Besides we have other plain scriptures that don't allow us to add that to the passage and make such a sweeping judgment that all evildoers were never known by Jesus in salvation.
Where?
I see the plain words in the letter that warns them they have fallen away from Christ and made him of no effect in justification by going back to the law for justification. But osas says Jesus is always in effect in justification for the believer even if they stop believing and fall away from Christ, as the Galatians did.
Yeah, I know this is a convenient argument to explain the warnings to the church about falling away, but the passages are clearly addressed to believing, saved people, not to the fake believers among them who have nothing to fall away from and no believing to hold fast to. The required message for them would be to get saved. That message is not in these warnings.
