Although if anyone knows and can clearly explain this scripture to me, I'd really appreciate it. I just seem to understand that God wants us to ''do'' the 'Father's will' (what exactly is the Father's will?) and it's only those people who will get to Heaven, and that God doesn't want us to do iniquity/sin. Perhaps it is saying and I'm guessing and assuming that like some people may do many wonderful works but they're hypocrites and only have an outward appearance or elegance with words. Maybe that's the context?

The father's will is to treat others like we want to be treated, and don't treat others like we don't want to be treated. That is the fulfillment of the law and the prophets (Matthew 7:12)

He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God. Micah 6:8​
