He who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, shall be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. The rain fell, the floods came, the winds blew and slammed against that house and yet it did not fall - for it had been founded upon the rock. But he who hears these words of Mine and acts not on them, shall be compared to a foolish man who built his house on sand. The rain fell, the floods came, the winds blew and slammed against that house. It fell and great was its fall! (Matthew 7:24-27)
