The Gospels: Two Homes and the Authority of Jesus

In this session, we will wrap up Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, with his hearers openly acknowledging his authority. In this next warning passage, Jesus continues the theme of religious hypocricy by giving a dire and sobering warning of the fates of many who not only openly profess his name, but who do many mighty works in his name. We are then given an image of two house immersed in a storm. One stands. One falls. Where shall we cast our hope? How then shall we live?
