Jesus warned his listeners that not everyone who heard his message would believe it. To explain this, he told a story about two builders who each set out to build a house.
This part of the builders' story is found in Matthew, chapter 7, verses 21 to 24.
Builders are also found in the stories of the confusion at the Tower of Babel, Solomon's construction of the Temple and Nehemiah's rebuilding of the city walls.
The wise and foolish builders do not appear in any Lootro game yet but watch this space for news.

The first builder was wise. He planned his work carefully then built his house on a rock to ensure it had a strong foundation. The second builder was foolish. He quickly built his house on the sand because it was easier to do.
This part of the wise and foolish builders' story is found in Matthew, chapter 7, verses 24 to 26.
Foolish decisions are also found in the stories of Lot's wife looking back at the city of Sodom, Belshazzar's command to use the cups from the Temple, the young girls who ran out of oil for their lamps and the young farmer who wanted to build bigger and bigger barns.

The house on the rock stood firm but the house on the sand collapsed with a great crash.

This part of the wise and foolish builders' story is found in Matthew, chapter 7, verses 24 to 29.
Houses are also found in the stories of Jesus' visit to Mary and Martha, Jesus' visit to the tax collector Zacchaeus and the paralysed man's friends lowering him through the roof to be healed by Jesus.
