To whom Jesus says thatto Jews, Christians or Muslims?
In the Bible, (Matthew 7:21-23) Jesus says:
Not everyone who says to me, Lord, Lord!' will enter the kingdom of heaven.
But, who will enter the kingdom of heaven? Jesus says:
Only the person who does what my Father in heaven wants.
On that day, many will say to me: Lord, Lord, we did not:
1) Prophesy in your name?
2) Cast out demons in your name?
3) Do many miracles and many mighty works in your name?
However, Jesus will tell them publicly:
1) I never knew you
2) Depart from me, you workers of lawlessness.
3) Get away from me, you evil people.
Now, to whom the Lord Jesus addressed this great sermon?
1) To the Jews? No, they deny him
2) To the Muslims? No, although Muslims love the Lord Jesus and believe that He was a great Messenger, Allah, sent to the Israelites, however, Muslims do not cast out demons or do miracles in Jesus' name.
3) Then, this sermon is addressed to the Christians.
Well, to which Christians this great sermon is addressed?
Is it addressed to the ordinary Christian people?
No, because they do not cast out demons or do miracles in Jesus' name.
Is it addressed to the top Christian scholars and authority?
Yes, because they say that they out demons or do miracles in Jesus' name.
On that day, the Day of Judgment, Jesus will tell them publicly: "I never knew you; Get away from me, you evil people, you workers of lawlessness. Why do you call me 'Lord, Lord,' and not do what I tell you?"
It follows that not all the top Christian scholars and authority will enter the kingdom of heaven.
Think about it.

Matthew 7:21-23 (Young's Literal Translation)
21`Not every one who is saying to me Lord, lord, shall come into the reign of the heavens; but he who is doing the will of my Father who is in the heavens.
22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, lord, have we not in thy name prophesied? and in thy name cast out demons? and in thy name done many mighty things?
23and then I will acknowledge to them, that -- I never knew you, depart from me ye who are working lawlessness.
Luke 6:46 (Young's Literal Translation)
And why do ye call me, Lord, Lord, and do not what I say?
