Lesson 12 The Parable of the Two Builders (Luke 6:46-49)

Jesus taught the people many things. He uses a story to help them understand. He said, "It doesn't do any good to just call me 'Lord, Lord!' Let me describe the person who truly follows me. He listens to My words and does what I say. He is like a man who chooses the right place to build a house and then lays a deep and secure foundation. Even if the rain pours down, and the rivers flood and the winds rage, the house stands firm. The house is unshaken by the storm, because it has been built wisely on the right foundation. But the person who has heard my teachings but ignores them is like a man who builds his house on sand, without laying any foundation.
