Luke 6:46-49

The Wise and Foolish Builders

46 "Why do you call me, 'Lord, Lord,' and still don't do what I say?
47 Some people come to me and listen to me and do what I say. I will show you what they are like.
48 They are like someone who builds a house. He digs down deep and sets it on solid rock. When a flood comes, the river rushes against the house. But the water can't shake it. The house is well built.
49 "But here is what happens when people listen to my words and do not obey them. They are like someone who builds a house on soft ground instead of solid rock. The moment the river rushes against that house, it falls down. It is completely destroyed."
