Discourse: “Wise and Foolish Builders”
Reference: Matthew 7:24-27; Luke 6:46-49
Theme: We are Deceiving ourselves if we don’t put God’s Word into Practice - Destruction
Context: Jesus Closes His Sermon on the Mount with a Beautiful Illustration to Obey His Words
Luke 6:46-49
“Why do you call me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ and do not do what I say? I will show you what he is like who comes to me and hears my words and puts them into practice. He is like a man building a house, who dug down deep and laid the foundation on rock. When a flood came, the torrent struck that house but could not shake it, because it was well built. But the one who hears my words and does not put them into practice is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. The moment the torrent struck that house, it collapsed and its destruction was complete.”
