Proverbially Speaking
Categories: Church of Christ Bulletin ArticlesIn the 2009, volume 47, number 3 edition of The Sword and Staff publication, comes the following proverbs of wisdom (appropriate Scriptures and related articles have been added):
- There is nothing right with being wrong, nor is there a defense for it.
- If truth is not absolute, then there is no such thing as truth (see article).
- We should not ask for the Lord’s leading if we are not willing to follow.
- You must take the high road if your destination is heaven.
- Love that will not confront wrong and correct, is morally useless.
- You are not right until you are right with God.
- Someone has said that there are three kinds of believers: (1) Believers; (2) Unbelievers; (3) Make-believers.
- The closer Christ got to the cross, the fewer were his followers (John 16:32; John 20:9-10).
- Doors are for keeping in and keeping out; and for letting in and letting out (Genesis 7:16; Matthew 25:10; Revelation 3:20).
- Much of the travel on the road of life turns out to be detours, so get used to the unexpected.
