He who does the will of my Father.

by Alejandro Roque Glez.

“Not everyone that said to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that does the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in your name? and in your name have cast out devils? and in your name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess to them, I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity.”

(Matthew 7:21-23)

Christianity––as we have emphasized––has suffered much for two main reasons:

1- The Old Testament has been totally ignored.

It is used widely when ministers want to refer and recall the tithe, ensuring always-in abundant ‘roast meat’ to their coffers; and in the name of the Lord they will stimulate a group willing to forget even their families if necessary, but depositing on them to be always attentive to the routine mandates and regulatory activities established by the institution, while the leader enjoys and inflates his/her stomach. Of course, it is not something that happens in every institution or sect, there are many brothers engaged in preaching the Good News, but often blind to the dogmatic––and non biblical harmony––of their impositions.

The Law of God is very important in order to know the function of the human social gearing engagement and why certain necessary precepts, set by our omniscient Creator.

2- Our passions: whether in the individual or political level and order. Many times the place, where and how we grew up, exert influence in the way––supposedly in the name of God––the Holy Scriptures are interpreted.

This is seen and perceived since the first centuries. We see for instance in times of Constantine, the Roman emperor, how the Christian lider and historian Eusebius of Caesarea, in love with his new secular leader, he enlarges him to the core. He grants him undeserved flatteries while becoming blind to the destruction of churches and congregations thwarted by not yielding to the secular power; actions supported by a small ecclesiastic group enslaved to that power, and punishing the fold which did not allowed to be subdued by the new Rome, believed Christian. This included the demonization of all true Christians who refused to be drawn into the ecclesiastical hierarchy of the capital in the Empire which at last––through years and centuries––became the corruptible engender now known as the Vatican.

The passions and emotions beyond the required temperance to understand the character of God, its manifestation, and revelations to men, have permeated many congregations. For centuries there have been disputes whether to raise our hands in the church or whether allow angelic or demonic languages to be played (all angels, for or against God, speak the same language); adding a host of human-created doctrines and leaders which have been guessing and assuming things that God ever said, and that are counterpoised to what He revealed, and that is why in this passage Jesus warned beforehand, “I never knew you;” meaning, they did it not inspired by Divinity, but by their own passions and egocentric-thirsty ways.

All these theological and congregational arbitraries often become hard yokes imposed by men, which repel any human who really took the time to search in the Scriptures from Genesis to Revelation, and appreciate the grace, gift, and the bliss of freedom impregnated in us by our Creator together with the right to be educated, since we were created.

In this passage we are analyzing the Lord Jesus prophesies towards the End Times and firstling Judgment among those called to the First Resurrection. The problems we have warned originate––until today––a layer of false religiosity and abounding hypocrisy for selfish gains. They think they can fool the Omniscient Divinity, not realizing the eternal consequences of their adventures and fates; while oppressing the true, poor and blessed flock of the Redeemer.

The Lord’s words in this chapter are not directed to the world, but to false Christians who used the Gospel around the globe as a means of opulent livelihood and disproportionate fame, like superstars of a world from which God asks us to distance when it affects our spiritual relationship. They are those who have used the name of the Savior to lie and deceive the harvest thirsty for spiritual freedom; and posing as Christians they proclaim that the Holy Spirit speaks through them on a daily, special and unique way, forbidden for the little children by which Jesus walked to the Cross without reproach, suffering the obloquy of society.

Many of them forge large ministries as corporations based on the manipulation of Truth; and every day they wake up with a new vision and dream saying: “I have dreamed, I have dreamed” (Jer 23:25-27, 34).

Those who deviate the blessed tiny children of the Holy One from the study of God’s Word, entertaining them with appearances, jargons, pre-elaborated hops and childish nonsense submitting under their whims the spontaneity God instilled in our wills; and in a world so much needed of the regular and tempered study of the Holy Bible; where both: time and those who are trained to teach such Word of God greatly scarce.

Woe to those who tell the disciples of the Lord that his Commandments are obsolete, and the wrath of God does not exist; that love shall ignore the needy justice, and that to Christ you can reach through different ways!... “For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written” (Rom 2:24).
