How Can You Be Mine?

Why do you say you are Mine when you spend no time with Me? How do you claim to serve Me when you do not? When I plead with you to give up your sin, you refuse Me. When I call you to service, you refuse. When I call you to give, you protest. When I call you to forgive, you make excuses why you cannot.

How then can you be Mine at all? How can you be My Disciples? How can you be Mine if you do not resemble anything about Me?

Eph 5:8 - 8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now [are ye] light in the Lord: walk as children of light:

Rom 8:17 - 17 And if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with [him], that we may be also glorified together.

Eph 2:10 - 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

Luke 14:27, 33

27 And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after me, cannot be my disciple.

33 So likewise, whosoever he be of you that forsaketh not all that he hath, he cannot be my disciple.

Matthew 7:18-23

18 A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit.

19 Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire.

20 Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them.

21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
