TEACHING: WHO IS A FOOLISH MAN? – Bro.C.Umashankar IAS

“FOOLISH MAN WHO BUILT HIS HOUSE ON THE SAND”

  Who are these foolish men who built their house on the sand?

  Just take a look at the man made traditions in the churches. Wherever such man made traditions are there, they are places of foolish men. Those who have prescribed these traditions and the followers, both of them are foolish. Because both of them miss out the Kingdom of Heaven at the end.

  Child baptism followed by “Conformation” lint day fact , harvest festival , Christmas carols Devotion to Mary and saints, veneration for statues and pictures etc , are all traditions not based on the word of God or just contrary to the commandments of God

  In verse 26, the Lord calls them all “foolish men (and women)”.

CONCLUSION:

     The Lord has clearly defined the foundation for a solid spiritual life that can fetch one the Kingdom of Heaven. Jesus, Jesus alone is the foundation. None else and nothing else. If anyone builds his/her spiritual life on the foundation of Jesus (His word), he/she will be called wise. Rest of the crowd is called “foolish” by Jesus Himself.

     Do you think Heaven is a place for this type of fools?
