Solid Foundation

Luke 6:46-49   
46 “But why do you call Me ‘Lord, Lord,’ and not do the things which I say? 47 Whoever comes to Me, and hears My sayings and does them, I will show you whom he is like: 48 He is like a man building a house, who dug deep and laid the foundation on the rock. And when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently against that house, and could not shake it, for it was founded on the rock. 49 But he who heard and did nothing is like a man who built a house on the earth without a foundation, against which the stream beat vehemently; and immediately it fell. And the ruin of that house was great.”

Only the foundation of Jesus Christ can hold up what we build on Him.  Of course, wood and hay will burn and precious metals will remain, but we are forever His when He is what we build on, whatever we build with.  So we do not say empty words of 'Lord,' but have Him so in our hearts because we are saved by grace and faith on Christ alone, our foundation and cornerstone!  So we weather the storm of judgment for eternity.  Repent, believe, and follow- this is building on rock.
