127. That to worship the Lord is to do good, appears from the Lord's words, in Matthew (vii. 24-27), and in Luke (vi. 47-49), "Therefore whosoever heareth, My words, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a prudent man who built his house upon a rock. But he who heareth My words, and doeth them not, I shall liken unto a foolish man who built his house upon the sand; or upon the ground without any foundation."
