496. The Importance of Righteousness (#1) February 26, 2024

Welcome to Wisdom Today with Bill Kelley. Today we will be going over Proverb 26. I will then key in on verses 11 & 12 - As a dog returns to his own vomit, So a fool repeats his folly. Do you see a man wise in his own eyes? There is more hope for a fool than for him. Friends, it is important that when we make mistakes that we learn from them. A fool doesn't learn from his mistakes and will repeat them over and over again. The only thing worse than being a fool is to be haughty in your own eyes. The sin of pride will remove us from the presence of God in our lives. We are to avoid falling into pride at all costs. On today's podcast we will begin a short study on the the importance of being righteous. I will introduce the foundational verse of our study: 2 Corinthians 5:21. We will break this verse down and I will add commentary from Romans 5:17 to further establish this verse. Call to Action - How often do you seek council in your life?
