Jesus taught on the sermon of the Mount that not all who said, "Lord, Lord" would enter into the kingdom of heaven, but only those who did the will of His heavenly Father.
He addressed two fallacies here.
1 Those who would call on the name of the LORD doing spiritual acts without personal discipline to obey Jehovah GOD . . .
2. Those who call out the name "Lord, Lord" but are doing the will of another god . . .

"Now the two angels arrived at Sodom by evening, and Lot was sitting in the gate of Sodom. When Lot caught sight of them, then he got up to meet them and bowed down with his face to the earth.

Then you must get up early and travel on your way.” To this they said: “No, but in the public square is where we shall stay overnight."" -- Genesis 19:1,2
