What foundation is you home built upon? That's verses 24-27. Jesus says that life is a process of building. If it stands the test of time and is able to weather the storms, it must be built on a solid foundation. Jesus Christ is that foundation according to I Corinthians 3:11. In addition to a good foundation, quality materials, ingredients and workmanship must go into the building of a good life. Let's briefly consider some of these.

Neurypnology; the Rationale of Nervous Sleep, Hypnotism, Hypnosis ... In other words, there is no power being transmitted by the hypnotist to the person being hypnotized. Instead, Braid understood, we know today, that people hypnotize themselves. The two key concepts required to hypnotize anyone is the belief that the hypnotist can hypnotize, and a submissive, suggestive personality or disposition at the time. Hypnosis is seen to day with charismatics and pentecostals who are "slain in the spirit" by the "powerful man of God". They falsely believe he is transmitting the power of the Holy Spirit and they therefore fall backwards ...
