(Lesson 5097)(01-15-26) Matthew 7:24-29
“Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it. And it came to pass, when Jesus had ended these sayings, the people were astonished at his doctrine: For he taught them as one having authority, and not as the scribes.”
In today’s quote, Jesus taught that only those who listen, believe in His words, and put those words into practice, have a secure foundation in faith, while those who ignore His teaching will give way to their own eternal judgment. Those who heard those words from Jesus recognized His authority to be far above any other teacher they had ever known. ~
