THE BEGINNING OF KNOWLEDGE

"The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction."        Proverbs 1:7
   Do you want to avoid making mistakes. Do you want peace? Do you want direction in all aspects of your life? Do you want to be happy? Then put this into practice:
   Don't walk in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stand in the path of sinners, nor sit in the seat of the scornful. Instead, take pleasure in reading the Word of God and meditate about it day and night. 
   Follow these steps and you will be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that brings forth its fruit in its season, whose leaves do not whither and whatever he does is successful.

Faith’s defense


“Stand therefore, having girded your waist with truth…” Ephesians 6.14

The defense of faith requires that one girds one’s waist with truth. That is, surround oneself with a spiritual chain of people with the same faith. Avoid, as much as possible, people who don’t follow the same doctrine of faith. Humanly speaking, it’s impossible to hold on to faith when you keep company or sits in the seat of the scornful, children of Belial.
Is it difficult? Yes. But whoever desires to protect his relationship with God and ensure the salvation of his soul must sacrifice.
