"Why call ye Me Lord, Lord and do not the things that I say? Depart from Me ye cursed of iniquity."

Jesus said to those who thought they were doing right by casting out devils and doing all kinds of good works, "Depart from Me ye who work iniquity for I never knew you." Why? They did not do the things that He said. They thought they were saved and going to heaven, but they were looking and listening to others. They did not know what Jesus really said because they never opened up His Word to see for themselves. They thought they could go to heaven by being good or doing good works or trying to duplicate what true saints of God were doing. 

They did not truly repent or yield themselves to Jesus for their salvation. No, they merely called Jesus Lord but did not do the things He said to do because they never looked to see what He said.

Man does not live by bread alone, but by every Word of God. We eat and drink to make sure our physical bodies are filled while our soul is starving because we do not feast on the Word of God. By not feasting on the Word of God causes spiritual death. by spiritual starvation.

Faith comes by hearing in your inner being the Word of God. A lack of reading the Word and knowing within yourself what He said results in "Why call ye Me Lord, Lord and do not the things that I say> Depart from Me ye cursed of iniquity."
