Study Notes
- Jesus taught that loving God and loving others is the greatest commandment, and following Him means not only hearing His words but also putting them into practice.
- Jesus used parables to teach lessons about God, and one of these parables is the story of the two Builders.
- In the parable, the wise Builder represents those who hear Jesus' words and put them into practice, building their house on rock, which stands strong against rain and wind.
- The foolish Builder represents those who hear Jesus' words but do not put them into practice, building their house on sand, which falls when the rain and wind come.
- The difference between the wise and foolish Builders is not their intelligence, wealth, or appearance, but their actions, with the wise Builder putting in extra effort to build on a solid foundation.
- To build a house on rock, the Builder has to dig deep, just as we need to put in effort to build a deep faith in God.
- We can love God by praying, worshiping, and spending time with Him, and love people by serving them, being kind, and sacrificing for them.
- Putting Jesus' words into practice takes time and effort, but it is the key to becoming more like Him.
- Jesus wants us to start with a good foundation, just like the wise Builder, and to practice being like Him over time.
