Luke 6:46

"Why do you call me, 'Lord, Lord,' and do not do what I say?" Luke 6:46 (ESV)

In the latter part of Luke 6 Jesus is teaching about the law. He is not preaching gospel here, but law. But if we depend on the law to save us we must keep it in its entirety, with no exceptions. However, if we believe the gospel we will be saved, and we will want to obey the law, yet without relying on our obedience to it for our salvation.
