GospeL Verses ~ Matthew 7:21-29
Jesus concludes his teaching (sermon) on the mountain(side) — 21 - “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ enters the kingdom of heaven, only the one who (actually) does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in the day (at the door to “the” millennium/wedding celebration, Mt.25:1-13) ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name? And cast out demons in your name? And do many mighty works in your name?’ 23 And then I will say to them, ‘I don’t know you, depart from me, workers of lawlessness.’ 24 “Everyone then who hears these words of mine and (actually) does them is like a wise person who built their house on the rock. 25 And the rains fell, the flood came, the winds blew and beat upon that house, but it didn’t fall, because it had been founded and built upon the rock. 26 But everyone who hears these words of mine, and doesn’t do them, is like a foolish person who built their house on sand, 27 and the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it.” 28 And thus did Jesus conclude these sayings, and the crowds marveled at his teaching, 29 for he was teaching them as one who had authority, and not as the scribes.

From New Testament Letters
(In the Order Believed Written)
~ Romans 3:19-23 ~
19 - We know that whatever the law says it speaks to those under the law, so that every mouth may be stopped (every objection silenced) and that all the world be accountable to God. (As opposed to if there were no law put forth.. don’t swear falsely, don’t bear false witness against, etc.) 20 But it is not by keeping the law that any human being will be justified in his sight. But through the law comes the knowing of what sin [hamartia - missing the mark] is. 21 But now the righteousness of God has been shown plainly- apart from the law - which the Law and the Prophets testify of it - 22 namely the righteousness (the pardon and new life) of God through faith in Jesus Christ for all who believe. For there is no distinction, 23 all have transgressed. ALL fall short of the glory of God. (God is - surely? - Life, and he “is perfect” Mt.5:48, so the result/wage of missing the mark/imperfection is? ..Logically, the - opposite - of Life. So the remedy was built into creation “from the foundation/beginning”. A logical and organized process. “Perfect” makes no mistakes. “Perfect” cannot lose anything.)
