NOT ALL

"Not everyone who says to Me, `Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. "Many will say to Me on that day, `Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?' "And then I will declare to them, `I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!'” Matthew 7:21-23.
Jesus said, "Not everyone who says to Me, `Lord, Lord,' shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.” What is the will of the Father?. The will of God is that we follow His law. Matthew 7:23. Jesus sends these men/women of great faith described in Matthew 7:21-23 straight to hell, no detour! Great faith alone, as we can see, is no assurance that we will go to heaven!
The apostle Paul, aka as Saul, says, “For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; [it is] the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” Ephesians 2:8-9. But we know that Adam and Eve, millions of souls who perished during the big flood, and Lucifer and millions of his angels lost eternal life because they didn't follow the law. They could not produce work that God could accept. Faith alone means nothing. “You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.” For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.” James 2:24,26.
Eternal life is not for everybody! "Enter by the narrow gate; for wide [is] the gate and broad [is] the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. "Because narrow [is] the gate and difficult [is] the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it.” Matthew 7:13-14.
Believing in Jesus that He will save us does not mean that He will save us. The men/women of great faith described in Matthew 7:21-23 believed that Jesus will save them. Instead, Jesus sends them straight to hell! No detour.
