IT WON’T MATTER

It won’t matter if we were preachers
Or teachers of God’s word,
Since there are countless ones who don’t obey
Where Jesus is not Lord.

It won’t matter if we did good works
Or prayed many prayers each day,
Since true holiness and bearing fruit
Comes when we simply do obey.

Our titles will not matter
Since they’re merely titles after all,
And true respect and dignity
Is when God our name will call.

And it won’t matter whether we profess
To love Jesus with our heart,
Because only God will truly know
If we’re really set apart.

As honorable as good works are
They’re not a ticket to eternity,
Since even unbelievers are caring and loving
But where God’s kingdom they won’t see.

Because the spiritual battle it is real
And narrow is the way,
And although Christians may struggle at times
There’s a promise that remains.

Repentance is required
And to be covered by His blood,
So God sees Jesus as our mediator
And purchased through His love.

Good works will never save;
It’s only through Jesus Christ,
Who sacrificed his dear life
And where His blood will suffice.

The only thing that will matter
Is if we’re truly saved indeed,
When Jesus is Lord and Savior
For all of eternity.

“Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’” Matthew 7:21-23

“For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. Therefore take up the whole arbor of God, that you may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all to stand.” Ephesians 6:12-13

“Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.” John 3:3
