Words of the Wise

Submitted by Bible Buck on Thu, 11/23/2006 - 4:21pm.

'Proverbs 22:17' states, Incline your ear and hear the words of the wise, and apply a heart to my knowledge. 'Prov.9:10' states, The fear of the Lord is the beginning of all wisdom, And the knowledge of the Holy One is understanding. There is a magnificent difference in the Way of Wisdom and the Way of Folly. 'Prov.9:1-12' gives definitive evidence of the way of wisdom.--'Prov.9:13-18' gives definitive evidence of the way of folly. Wisdom can be identified with God in the following Biblical Texts. Proverbs--Ecclesiastes--Ecclesiasticus or the Book of Sirach. Also in the Book of Wisdom of Solomon. The Excellence of Wisdom can be found in 'Prov.8:1-36'. Proverbial wisdom appears also in a book of Egyptian wisdom called the instruction of Amen-em-hotep. Look at the incredible and magnificent definition of wisdom. 'Wisdom 7:22-30'. The Bible is the road map of life . 'Prov.14:31' states, He who oppresses the Poor insults his Maker. There is much partiality in American life. 'Prov.24:23' states, It is not good to show partiality in judgment. Remember justice is the key to life. Sacred Scripture gives excellent advice regarding enemies of the Cross of Christ. 'Philippians 3:18-19' states, For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: whose end is destruction. America must walk in the light of Christ. Remember -The Garden of Eden was the Paradise of Delight. The Paradise of God is for those who are obedient to God's commands and live a life of faithfulness. On this Thanksgiving day--God Bless America--My home sweet home.
