Whosoever hears...


Jesus said--

 

Mat 7:24  Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

Mat 7:25  And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.

Mat 7:26  And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:

Mat 7:27  And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.

 

Whoever HEARS what JESUS is saying, and DOES what He is saying- is WISE.

Whoever HEARS what JESUS is saying, and DOES NOT DO what He is saying- is FOOLISH.

 

We HAVE to hear our Savior and then DO what He tells us to do.

 

This is Jesus speaking! This is straight from our SAVIOR!  So why do so many believe they don't have to do anything at all? Why?

 

Jesus teaches we must learn.

 

What we have to learn is what choices we have to make in our lives. 

The differences between right and wrong.

We aren't left to wonder what we should do and what we shouldn't do.

 

We are given the idealized life for a reason and that reason is to make us realize what our Savior expects, and the knowledge that it is ONLY THROUGH HIM we can have HOPE. It is HIS RIGHTEOUSNESS we are to HOPE in, all the while we are to STRIVE to be all He wants us to be, knowing HE is our RIGHTEOUSNESS and we are ONLY doing all He says to do, or trying to do all He says because we want to OBEY His commands.  WE want to OBEY HIM so we act, knowing that we are striving to do His will as He commands.  We are putting our TRUST in HIM, fully IN HIM for SALVATION, we cannot save ourselves by anything we do other than CHOOSING HIM, CHOOSING to obey HIM.

 

Mat 5:2  And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying…

 

We've studied all this before, and you know what, we could study it from now until eternity and we will keep learning. This is our LIFE, this is our SAVIOR TEACHING US LIFE and HOW TO LIVE.

 

So we begin… again all by the GRACE OF GOD.

 

IN HIS LOVE.
