The Wise and the Foolish Builders was a Parable of Jesus which He closed the Sermon on the Mount with as recorded in Matthew 7:24-27.
The parable teaches that faith built on the of foundation of doing God's will is more likely to stand as opposed to faith built on a foundation of merely just believing, but not doing God's will.
The Parable
"Everyone therefore who hears these words of mine, and does them, I will liken him to a wise man, who built his house on a rock. The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it didn't fall, for it was founded on the rock. Everyone who hears these words of mine, and doesn't do them will be like a foolish man, who built his house on the sand. The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it fell--and great was its fall."
