"For “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.” But how can they call on him to save them unless they believe in him? .."

(Romans 10.13-14 NLT)

"Not everyone who calls out to me, ‘Lord! Lord!’ will enter the Kingdom of Heaven."

(Matthew 7.21 NLT)

Many people call on the name of the Lord. Some of them go to church regularly. But calling on the name of the Lord without truly believing does not change much, really. My "believing" ought to lead to changed life - a life according to God's will, not my will.
