    Jesus is addressing those who think they believe, who think they follow God. They had the notion that they were children of God, but had never yielded to Him the depth of allegiance that is at the core of real belief. It is a dangerous spiritual state.

Others know Jesus as a good man who gave us a lot of good advice on how to live. To others Jesus is love guy-love your ...read more
