We Are The People

Matthew 7:24-27 “²⁴ “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 “But 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.”

The contrast in the parable is not between believers and non-believers but between believers who do and don’t do the word of God.  Members of a church community have both types of builders in the Body.  Pray that all members of our local churches be committed to our one sure foundation, Jesus Christ and commit to discipleship that prepares us for any attack that would threaten the existence of home, church and nation.
