He says, gold, silver, and precious stones, and then wood, hay, and straw. Do you notice the difference between the first three and the last three? So the first three, gold, silver, and precious stones, these are things built to last, built to endure. In other words, eternal materials to build on the eternal foundation of Christ with. But on the other hand, wood, hay, and straw, these are temporary things, fragile things that will not ultimately hold up to God's testing. So what's the warning here? If you are claiming to build for an eternal purpose, an eternal God, well, then you're gonna need to use eternal materials.
