Arcana Coelestia # 2387
2387. And the men said unto Lot. That this signifies that the Lord admonishes those who are in the good of charity, is evident from the signification of the “men,” as being the Lord (see n. 2378); from the signification of “saying,” as being to admonish; and from the representation of Lot, as being those who are in the good of charity (see n. 2324, 2351, 2371). Hence these words, “the men said unto Lot,” signifies that the Lord admonishes those who are in the good of charity.
Matthew 7:24-27
24
"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.
25
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.
26
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.
27
The rain came down, the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat on that house; and it fell--and great was its fall."
