Passage: Luke 6:47-49* 47. I will show you what he is like who comes to me and hears my words and puts them into practice. 48. He is like a man building a house, who dug down deep and laid the foundation on rock. When a flood came, the torrent struck that house but could not shake it, because it was well built. 49. But the one who hears my words and does not put them into practice is like a man who built a house on the ground without a foundation. The moment the torrent struck that house, it collapsed and its destruction was complete." Questions 1. What does Jesus say about the man who puts His words into practice? 2. What does He say about the man who chooses not too? 3. When did you last check the ground on which you've built your foundation? Practical help In recent three-minute studies you've been given practical Bible passages containing a wealth of wisdom. These studies, like the passages themselves, will be of little use to you if they're only read. Just like a general's battle strategy or a coach's game plan, they might sound courageous and powerful, but they're just words on paper until they're put into action! Go back and print out all of November's studies. Now write down a plan to put each one into practice. You'll be glad you did. eXXit homepage Index of three-minute studies Copyright 1998, 2003 by eXXit *Scriptures are from The Holy Bible: New International Version © Copyright 1973, 1978, 1984 by International Bible Society.
