What is the main point that Jesus seeks to convey with the story of the wise man building his house on the rock?
Jesus is affirming that those who put into practice what he has taught are the ones who truly belong to him and thus they will stand firm on the day of final judgment.1 Entrance into the kingdom comes to those who bow to his lordship.2 The one who takes Jesus’ words to heart will never be put to shame.3
25 La pluie est tombée, les torrents sont venus, les vents ont soufflé et se sont jetés contre cette maison: elle n'est point tombée, parce qu'elle était fondée sur le roc.
