Scriptures:
Proverbs 1:20-33
Wisdom calls aloud in the street, she raises her voice in the public squares; at the head of the noisy streets she cries out, in the gateways of the city she makes her speech: “How long will you simple ones love your simple ways? How long will mockers delight in mockery and fools hate knowledge?
If you had responded to my rebuke, I
would have poured out my heart to you and made my thoughts known to you. But
since you rejected me when I called and no one gave heed when I stretched out
my hand, since you ignored all my advice and would not accept my rebuke, I in
turn will laugh at your disaster; I will mock when calamity overtakes you— when
calamity overtakes you like a storm, when disaster sweeps over you like a
whirlwind, when distress and trouble overwhelm you.
“Then they will call to me but I will
not answer; they will look for me but will not find me. Since they hated
knowledge and did not choose to fear the Lord, since they would not accept my advice
and spurned my rebuke, they will eat the fruit of their ways and be filled with
the fruit of their schemes. For the waywardness of the simple will kill them,
and the complacency of fools will destroy them; but whoever listens to me will
live in safety and be at ease, without fear of harm.”
Ephesians 4:14
Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth
by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the
cunning and craftiness of people in their deceitful scheming.
1 John 5:13
I write these things to you who believe in the name of
the Son of God so that you may know that you have eternal life.
