Matthew 7:21 Douay-Rheims

Not every one that saith to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven: but he that doth the will of my Father who is in heaven, he shall enter into the kingdom of heaven.

John Chrysostom (attributed)

Patristic

For death separates the soul from the body, but changes not the purpose of the heart.
