Join us as we explore Matthew 7's final verses, where Jesus highlights the importance of building a strong foundation. He condemns false teachers who claim to speak for God but don't (Matthew 7:15-16) and false disciples who claim to follow Jesus but don't (Matthew 7:21-23). In contrast, He commends true disciples who hear and do what He says (Matthew 7:24-28). True Christians have received Christ, are forgiven, belong to and serve Christ, while almost Christians see sin but don’t confess it and remain undecided.
Wise builders act on Jesus' words, creating a solid foundation. To build a firm foundation, one must invest, inspect for overt (Psalm 139:23-24, Galatians 5:19-21) and covert sin (Mark 11:25), envision, and endure. -
