Matthew 7:24-29

24“Therefore, everyone who hears these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock.

25The rain fell, the rivers rose, and the winds blew and pounded that house. Yet it didn’t collapse, because its foundation was on the rock.

26But everyone who hears these words of mine and doesn’t act on them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand.

27The rain fell, the rivers rose, the winds blew and pounded that house, and it collapsed. It collapsed with a great crash.”

28When Jesus had finished saying these things, the crowds were astonished at his teaching,

29because he was teaching them like one who had authority, and not like their scribes.
