Send us a textSimple and Foolish5 You simple people, use good judgment.     You foolish people, show some understanding.6 Listen to me! For I have important things to tell you.     Everything I say is right,7 for I speak the truth     and detest every kind of deception.Verse 5Solomon uses special meanings for the words ‘simple’ and ‘foolish’.The ‘fool’ is proud and lazy. He does not want to serve God. He hates wisdom. He prefers to do evil things. If you try to teach a fool, he will hate you. He will only learn if God changes him.The ‘simple’ person does not know what is right or wrong. He has not learned to be wise. He chooses to do evil things, because ‘everybody does it’. But you can teach a simple person. A simple person can learn to be wise.Verses 6-7The woman called Wisdom speaks good words. Her words are always true (verse 6). They are fair (verse 7). She does not speak wrong words (verse 7).Proverbs reminds us that the ends never justify themeans; we should never use wicked means since wickedness is anabomination to Yahweh.God tells us that there are absolute right and wrongthings in Creation, unlike what we are teaching in our publicschools and on Sesame Street. There we are told that,There are no universal right and wrong actions.What is right for me may not be right for you.It is up to each of us to decide which view is the truth.As for me, I will choose that the Creator is absolutely truthfuland is absolutely unchanging. And I will find what is right andwhat is wrong by reading Scriptures.Contemplate: What do you believe? Is truth relative,depending on circumstances? Is truth absolute? Or is theremiddle ground? Murder is absolutely sinful, but sex outsidemarriage may not always be sinful?If you want daily truth in a raw, simple format… come follow us on TikTok at Wisdom for the Day — RAW.Real truth.
