Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Only a Profession: And Other Sermons
When He would teach the difference between knowing and doing, He pointed to a building in ruins, whose foundations had been laid in the sand and carried away by a spring torrent, and said Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of Mine and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man who built his house upon a rock; and the rain de scended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not; for it was founded upon a rock. And every one that heareth these sayings of Mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house on the sand; and the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell; and great was the fall of it.
