Luke 13:25-27

Luk 13: 25 Once the head of the house gets up and shuts the door, then you will be standing outside and knocking on the door and begging him, ‘Lord, let us in!’ But he will respond to you, ‘I don’t know where you come from.’
Luk 13:26 Then you will begin to say, ‘We ate and drank in your presence, and you taught in our streets.’
Luk 13:27 But he will respond, ‘I don’t know where you come from! Go away from me, all you wrongdoers!’

knowing all about Jesus

There were some in the crowds who knew all about Jesus. They had heard him preach, saw his miracles, even ate and drank at the same parties he went to. But they remained uncommitted. Jesus warned those “good people” who failed to put their faith in him that on judgment day, he would not acknowledge them. The question for us is not how much we know about Jesus, but whether he knows us.

LORD, break the walls that keep us from committing to you 100%!
