Matthew 7:24-29 (New American Standard)

The Two Foundations

24 "Therefore 1everyone who hears these words of Mine and aacts on them, bmay be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 "And the rain fell, and the cfloods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house ; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock. 26 "Everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not dact on them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. 27 "The rain fell, and the efloods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house ; and it fell -and great was its fall." 28 f2When Jesus had finished these words, 3the crowds were amazed at His teaching ; 29 for He was teaching them as one having authority, and not as their scribes.
