Empty Words (Matthew 7:21–23) John MacArthur
Summary
This sermon, concluding the Sermon on the Mount from Matthew 7:21-29, emphasizes that true entry into God's kingdom is not based on outward religious acts but on obeying God's will. It contrasts those who build on the solid foundation of obedience with those who build on the sand of mere profession. The practical takeaway is that genuine faith is demonstrated through action, not just words.
