It is not enough to sit at Jesus' feet.

 Sadly, there is an army of unwashed, deceived people, who used to attend The Worldwide Church of God.  They sat at Jesus' feet, heard what he had to say, and got up and walked away.  

Perhaps they didn't wait to hear his final words thus: "Therefore whosoever hears these saying of mine, and do them, I will liken him unto a wise man, who built his house upon a rock: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock."

Then the greatest teacher there has ever been, contrasted the positive response to what he said, with the frightful consequences of failing to do what he says thus: "And every one that hears these sayings of mine, and do them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, who built his house upon the sand: And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon the house: and it fell; and great was the fall of it"(Matt.7:24-27).

If we look around at the wreckage of the houses of 98% of the people who once attend The Worldwide Church of God, we are driven to the inescapable conclusion, that they sat at Jesus feet, but never did anything that he said, and that applies, in particular, to the so-called ministers.

Now the question that logically arises is this, what did Jesus say that we should do, to ensure that our house was built upon a rock?  A question I will answer at a later date, for the benefit of those who are not spiritually blind.
