Many people will "say" they believe in Jesus Christ but have no desire to be changed by Christ into a new creation. They are attempting to be good by their own strength hoping people will think of them as a good person.
They like being members of a happy and safe club but do not want to obey Christ. They even become angry when someone else challenges their stubborn attitude and lack of adherence to the principles of the Bible.
Matthew 7:21-23 "21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. 22 On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ 23 And then will I declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.’"
John 14:15-31
15 “If you love Me, you will keep My commandments."
