The Words of Christ refer to the teachings, parables, and sayings of Jesus Christ as recorded in the New Testament, which are considered authoritative and foundational to the Christian faith. According to the Gospel of Matthew, Jesus' words are likened to a rock upon which a wise builder constructs a house, able to withstand life's storms (Matthew 7:24-25). The words of Christ are also described as spirit and life, imparting eternal life to those who receive them (John 6:63), and are considered a source of guidance and comfort, as expressed in Psalms 119:105, where the psalmist writes, "Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path." Through his words, Christ conveys God's love, redemption, and plan for humanity, as seen in John 3:16, which states, "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only begotten Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."
