BIBLE VERSES
This sermon was based on Matthew 7:24-27.
Build Your House on the Rock
24 “Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. 26And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not do them will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand.27And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of it.”
KEY POINTS
- Teaching helps us counter the false stories we believe
- Focussing on renewal of our minds (Romans 12 vs. 2) is an active process, we can retrain our brains to change the way we think
- But teaching alone isn’t enough, you can’t think your way to Christlikeness
- Following Jesus is more like learning Karate than maths – we’ve got to practice as this is what transforms our heart
