I NEVER KNEW YOU

Matthew 7:21-23

Introduction:

• The occasion – “that day”
• The issue – who “shall enter the kingdom of heaven”
• The judge – “Me” (Christ)
• The KEY – “I never knew you”

I. A FALSE PROFESSION

• Many believe they will end up in heaven
• Many actually will end up in hell

• Based on their words
• Based on their works

• The reason - sin against God
• The result - separation from God

II. A GENUINE RELATIONSHIP

• A genuine relationship with Christ is established by faith
• A genuine relationship with Christ is evidenced by fruit

Conclusion: Are you saved? Are you sure?
