Christian Life Principles from Proverbs
•
LET NOT
“Let not mercy and truth forsake thee:
bind them about thy neck; write them upon the table of thine heart”
“My son, let not them depart from thine eyes: keep sound wisdom and discretion”
“Chasten thy son while there is hope, and let not thy soul spare for his crying.”
“Rejoice not when thine enemy falleth, and let not thine heart be glad when he stum-bleth”
•
LEAN NOT
“Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.”
•
LUST NOT
“Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids.”
“Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell”
•
LOVE NOT
“Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread.”
‘As ye sow, so shall ye reap.’
“In all labor there is profit”
•
LABOUR NOT
“Labour not to be rich: cease from thine own wisdom. Wilt thou set thine eyes upon that which is not? for riches certainly make themselves wings; they fly away as an eagle toward heaven.”
•
LOOK NOT
“Look not thou upon the wine when it is red, when it giveth his colour in the cup, when it moveth itself aright. At the last it biteth like a serpent, and stingeth like an adder. Thine eyes shall behold strange women, and thine heart shall utter perverse things. Yea, thou shalt be as he that lieth upon the top of a mast. They have stricken me, shalt thou say, and I was not sick; they have beaten me, and I felt it not: when shall I awake? I will seek it yet again”
“Wine is a mocker, strong drink is raging: and whosoever is deceived thereby is not wise.”
Take the Challenge
“With all thy getting get understanding”
