HOW TO BUILD A LIFE Matthew 7:24-29

1 Corinthians 3: Corinthians 3:10-11 According to the grace of God which was given to me, like a wise master builder I laid a foundation, & another is building on it. But each man must be careful how he builds on it. 11 For no man can lay a foundation other than the one which is laid, which is Jesus Christ.

Building Site 1.Consider the site’s --- past – Solomon (Eccl 2:9-11), Ahab (1 Kings 21), Saul of Tarsus (Phil 3:4-8)

Building Site 2.Consider the site’s --- future – Its future will be like its past (Eccl 12:13-14; 1 John 2:15-17; Jas 1:14-15).

Building Site 3.The easiest site to build on --- is not the best site to build on. – A Christian’s calling is not an easy one (Matt 7:13- 14; Luke 14:27; Matt 16:24; Gal 6:14; Rom 6:6).

Building Site 4.The most attractive site to build on --- is not the best site to build on. – People want a church (a religion) that has attractive qualities.

Building Site 5.We can choose the right site to build on --- and still build a house that will fall. – The Lord’s teachings must be heeded or faith will fail during trial and temptation.

Build on a solid foundation.
