Church membership alone does not save any one. Jesus made this act very plain that there must be more than a cold profession of religion.
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.
Matthew 7:21.
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.
Matthew 7:22-23.
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:
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.
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:
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.
Matthew 7:24-27.
The great question is, Have I been born of God, and am I showing by my life that I am a child of God?
JESUS answered and said unto him, Verily, verily I say unto thee, except a man be BORN AGAIN, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
John 3:3.
