22 Many will say to me on that day, ‘Lord, Lord, didn’t we prophesy in your name? Didn’t we force out demons and do many miracles by the power and authority of your name?’
23 Then I will tell them publicly, ‘I’ve never known you. Get away from me, you evil people.’
24 “Therefore, everyone who hears what I say and obeys it will be like a wise person who built a house on rock.
25 Rain poured, and floods came. Winds blew and beat against that house. But it did not collapse, because its foundation was on rock.
26 “Everyone who hears what I say but doesn’t obey it will be like a foolish person who built a house on sand.
27 Rain poured, and floods came. Winds blew and struck that house. It collapsed, and the result was a total disaster.”
28 When Jesus finished this speech, the crowds were amazed at his teachings.
