Built on the Rock

from His24-7.com · host Rev. Joel D. McMahon III

The Parable of the Two Foundations is actually Jesus’ concluding invitation to The Sermon on the Mount. He tells us that whoever hears His words and acts on them is wise, and whoever does not is foolish. He builds up to this conclusion by making it clear that there are two ways to choose from in life, a narrow one and a wide one. The narrow leads to life, and the wide to destruction. This is not referring solely to salvation, but to all of life. He then lets us know that those who are walking in “The Way” will be known by their fruit. The question facing us all is on which foundation are we building? The good news is that if we have been building on the wrong foundation and the storms of life have caused something like a relationship, marriage, or anything else to fall apart or break down, we have the opportunity to rebuild on the right foundation, and wind up with something much better than we had before.

Wisdom's Proof JesusLifeTogether In a world of religion, ritual, hierarchy, control, money, marketing, and more flavors than 10,000 Baskin Robbins — how can we know what is Right and True? Some just give up. Bad move. JESUS LIVES and REIGNS! Some simply "go along to get along" to conform to culture and biological family. Really bad move, unless you are a lemming and don't care about the destiny someone else has chosen for you. But then JESUS, knowing this day would come, said, "By their fruit you shall know them" and "Wisdom is PROVED RIGHT by all her CHILDREN." Luke 7:35 Find some random offspring from whatever you wish you knew more about, look carefully at the second generation, and see if the gates of Hell are prevailing — as they would in a "mere words" and "mere ceremonies" attendance-based religious organization. OR, is satan getting busted in the mouth by that second generation? What is the fruit and the quality of LIVES of the children - once they can make their own choices? Then you'll Know. Wisdom is PROVED
