Luke 6:46
(Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition)
And why call you me, Lord, Lord; and do not the things which I say?
summary:
Verses 46–49 – Building on the Rock
Calling Jesus “Lord” without obeying Him is worthless. Obedience digs deep to rock; disobedience builds on sand, and the coming flood shows the difference.
verses 47-49 for context
(Berean Standard Bible)
I will show you what he is like who comes to Me and hears My words and acts on them: 48He is like a man building a house, who dug down deep and laid his foundation on the rock. When the flood came, the torrent crashed against that house but could not shake it, because it was well built. 49But the one who hears My words and does not act on them is like a man who built his house on ground without a foundation. The torrent crashed against that house, and immediately it fell—and great was its destruction!”
