Sermon on the Mount Week 22
The End of the Life of Faith
Matthew 7:24-29
The Two Builders
The Foundations
Therefore
-To
Close
This Sermon
Whosoever heareth these sayings of mine
-More Than
Listening
; Implies Some
Understanding
of the Truth
And doeth them
-
Assent
is Insufficient; There Must be
Action
(James 1:22)
One Built His House on Solid Rock
I will liken him
-Shall Be Likened in
Figure
and
Parable
Unto a wise man
-A
Sensible
, Prudent, Provident Man
Which built his house
-Externally, They Both Look
Alike
Upon a rock
-
Obedience
to the
Word
of God (James 2:14)
The Parable is About Two
Builders
& Their
Completed
Work
Or About Obedience &
Disobedience
Another Man Built on Shifting Sand
A foolish man-
Empty
Profession
Built his house upon the sand-
Meaning a Loose
Foundation
& External
Show
The Storm
A Symbol for God’s
Judgment
The House on the Rock Stood Firm
Rain descended-
From
Above
Floods came-
From
Below
Winds Blew
-Sweeping
Across
Beat upon that house-
From Every
Direction
Beat upon-
Means literally
Fell
Against
It fell not; …founded upon a rock-
Foundation
(1 John 2:17)
The House on the Sand Fell Flat
Great was the fall of it-
Terrible
the
Ruin
(Prov 10:25; Ps 1:5;
Jn 12:28)
A False Profession May Last Until
Judgment
Comes
Sometimes Judgment is in the Form of the
Trials
of Life
This Verse Refers to the
Final
Judgment Before God
Profession Will Ultimately Be Tested
Before
God
Effect of the Sermon on the Mount
The people
-
Crowds
in Contrast to
Scribes
Were astonished
-Literally,
Struck
Out of Themselves
At his doctrine-
Teaching
For he taught them as one having authority-
Consistently
From Himself
Not as the scribes-
Who Got Their Authority From
Tradition
&
Previous
Teachers
