I Corinthians 3:10-15 and John 14

With scraps of wooden molding left over from a redecoration project, I constructed several small "houses" that were subsequently covered with paper. These were then incorporated into two companion collages on hardwood, both dealing with Biblical references to houses in the context of the afterlife.

Paul explains in I Corinthians 3:10-15 the fate of one's works in the afterlife in terms very reminiscent of the story of the three little pigs. Deeds on earth may or may not survive judgment fire depending on the foundation on which they were built, but believers will be saved nevertheless.

When Jesus' disciples express concern regarding their future fate, he reassures them that there will be abundant room prepared for them in heaven (John 14:1-7).
