Act on Jesus' words, don't just agree with them

Jesus taught that agreeing with his words is not substantial, we need to act on them.

Matthew 7:24-27 24 "Everyone then who hears these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock. 25 The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on rock. 26 And everyone who hears these words of mine and does not act on them will be like a foolish man who built his house on sand. 27 The rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and beat against that house, and it fell-- and great was its fall!"

Do we ignore Jesus' teaching to act on his words, not just agree with them?
