Matthew 7:24 in Context — Matthew 7

22 Plusieurs me diront en ce jour-là: Seigneur, Seigneur, n’avons-nous pas prophétisé par ton nom? N’avons-nous pas chassé des démons par ton nom? Et n’avons-nous pas fait beaucoup de miracles par ton nom?

23 Alors je leur dirai ouvertement: Je ne vous ai jamais connus,retirez-vous de moi, vous qui commettez l’iniquité.

24 C’est pourquoi, quiconque entend ces paroles que je dis et les met en pratique, sera semblable à un homme prudent qui a bâti sa maison sur le roc.

25 La pluie est tombée, les torrents sont venus, les vents ont soufflé et se sont jetés contre cette maison: elle n’est point tombée, parce qu’elle était fondée sur le roc.

26 Mais quiconque entend ces paroles que je dis, et ne les met pas en pratique, sera semblable à un homme insensé qui a bâti sa maison sur le sable.
