 Fulfill the Will of God
10. Not all who say to Me, Lord! Lord! will enter the Kingdom of Heaven, but those who do the will of My Father who is in heaven. Many will say to Me on that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name? Have we not cast out devils in Your name? Have we not done many wonderful works in Your name? Then I will declare to them, I have never known you; depart from Me, you evil-doers. (Chap. 27:10
Christ explains, corrects
and deepens the word:
The one who merely calls on My name and does not fulfill the will of My Father is poor in spirit, despite his seemingly spiritually effective speech and his seemingly courteous words, and will not enter the Kingdom of Heaven.
But the one who accomplishes selfless deeds without expecting reward or acknowledgement is the one who does the will of My Father, for he acts as he thinks and speaks.
Selfless deeds occur only through God-filled sensations and thoughts. If a person’s thoughts are impure, then his words are empty and his deeds egocentric.
Recognize that the one who appears to speak from the I Am, that is, who seems to speak My word and appears to accomplish deeds in My name, living well from this, has already received his reward. He will receive no further reward in heaven. The one who does selfless works of love and works for his earthly bread will receive the just reward in heaven.
Recognize that the spiritual bread is the spiritual nourishment for the soul. The bread for the body should be earned according to the law of “pray and work.”
The spiritual bread comes from heaven and will be offered to those who keep the law of love and of life and who also fulfill the commandment “pray and work.”
God gives human beings material food through the earth. The fruits of the earth require preparation through the work of the hands. Thus, the worker is worthy of his wage.
Recognize the difference between bread for the soul and bread for the earthly body! Both may flow from one source, but the one is spiritual and is offered to the soul, and the other is condensed substance, matter, and is given to the physical body. What the great Spirit, God, gives the people for their physical body requires human work; for example, it must be sown, cultivated, harvested and prepared. For this, the person should also be paid by people.
Only the one who does everything out of love for God and man will be received into the Kingdom of God.

As Jesus of Nazareth, Christ gave us the Sermon on the Mount and He explains and deepens it today through His prophetic word in His great work of revelation: "This Is My Word, Alpha and Omega, The Christ-Revelation, which all true Christians the world over have come to know."
