Question

Describe the foundational truth of the Sermon on the Mount.(DO NOT USE YAHOO ANSWERS OR ANY OTHER SOURCE DO IT YOURSELF)

Answer 1

What Christ is saying is that a wise man will know His words as the truth. When you build a foundation, you do not start at the top, and build the roof first. You start with a solid frame (teaching) and continue to build upon those stations, in this way you build a strong faith and testimony. You lay your corner stones, to support that which comes later.

Matthew 7:24-27 “Everyone then who hears these words of mine and does them will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And 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. And 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. And 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.”
