"Therefore whoever hears these sayings of Mine,
and does them, I will liken him to a wise man who
built his house on the rock 25. and the rain
descended, the floods came, and the winds blew
and beat on that house and it did not fall, for
it was founded on the rock. 26. Now everyone who
hears these sayings of Mine, and does not do
them, will be like a foolish man who built his
house on the sand 27. and the rain descended,
the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on
that house and it fell. And great was its fall."
5Luke 646-49
6Luke 646-49
"But why do you call Me 'Lord, Lord,' and do not
do the things which I say? 47. Whoever comes to
Me, and hears My sayings and does them, I will
show you whom he is like 48. He is like a man
building a house, who dug deep and laid the
foundation on the rock. And when the flood arose,
the stream beat vehemently against that house,
and could not shake it, for it was founded on the
rock. 49. But he who heard and did nothing is
like a man who built a house on the earth without
a foundation, against which the stream beat
vehemently and immediately it fell. And the ruin
of that house was great."
