 To be someone's child, to acknowledge their parenthood, is to obey them. The one who does the will of my Father in Heaven is the son or daughter of my Heavenly Father, Jesus is saying. Many will say to me on that day, Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name? Did we not drive out demons in your name? Did we not perform miracles in your name? Then I will declare to them solemnly, I never knew you.
