Proverbs
Chapter 1:
Verse
1.
The
Proverbs of Solomon, the son of David, King of Israel.
First
we learn that these proverbs are written by a King. These wise words
are from the son of David, the King of Israel. What does this mean
for you. It means that you are also a king. It means that in order to
obtain this wisdom you have to identify yourself as being special.
That you are a God Human Being. This is so important and not to be
taken lightly. The person reading this has to identify themselves as
having dominance over their life and their world. It is why Jesus Christ
said he was not apart of this world. It was why Jesus ascended to
heaven. You also have to ascend to your higher conscious. Jesus
always stated that he is not of the world in which he resided. That
meant that Jesus Christ accepted that he was the ruler of his life
and world. As a person reading Proverbs you have to understand that
you to are special. For you are also not of this world. That only
means that you are not dominated by this world. That you identify
with God. That you considers yourself as being a God Human Being
instead of just being a Human Being. As a king we know that King Solomon has people under him. That this king is obligated to direct, guide,
and lead a lowly people in a Godly fashion. We would later learn that
this king is inspired by God to teach morally, of what is right and
wise in order to identify with God. Yes, a king that dares to teach
the people the difference between right and wrong from a moral
standpoint, to the common and lowly people. Common and lowly people
were people that were not considered privileged to learn wise
sayings. King Solomon taught the common lowly people that they were
special. That they did not have to have come from a man made king. That all
people first came from God. Anyone telling you different is your
enemy. The
teaching of wisdom was only for the elite, special, and wealthy
persons. You should keep in mind that as a king, King Solomon was
more likely to be frowned on for teaching, common folks wise
proverbs. But King Solomon was both inspired by God and a King.
Because he was inspired by God, King Solomon felt compelled by God to
teach common people wise words before God, as well as be the common
peoples king just as a president, holding the highest office in the
country. Yes, the first thing we learn is that these proverbs are
from a king. A king just like a president. A king in the past years
when church and state was not separated, but as one. Such a leader
ruled over the people like a God or Lord. Physically and
spiritually. Having the power to direct people in moral and civil
matters, as well as punish and, or penalised persons on those moral
and civil matters. Having the power to order a person to be beheaded,
or thrown in a lions den, for any reason. King Solomon was inspired
to teach the people the wisdom of God. On how to identify with God as
a God Human Being.
Proverbs
Chapter 1 Verse Two:
To learn
wisdom and
discipline; To understand wise sayings.
King
Solomon was more likely to be frowned on for teaching the common
folks wise proverbs, by both the common people and the special elite
folks. Why was this? It is because common people were looked down on
by the elite, so much that the common people often believed that they
could not learn. It is like with the perpetuation of poverty. The
perpetuation of poverty is a learned condition. It is believed that
the elite started the perpetuation of poverty on the common people in
a racist society. Once the perpetuation of poverty was successfully
taught to the common peoples, the common people believed and
continued to teach themselves in the ways of poverty. This is even
seen right now, and anywhere there is the perpetuation of poverty.
This is also seen with depression.
A
depressed person depresses themselves, just like a person has to
perpetuate their own poverty. Depression is something that is also
believed to have been first started by the elite, special social
class, through what is called Oppression. However, Depression is a
mental function in itself. Depression is a mental illness that causes
a person to repeat something that is harmful to themselves. While
being in poverty does not cause depression, Perpetuating poverty does
cause depression. Being in poverty is not a belief or mindset.
However, perpetuating poverty is a belief and a mindset. You could be
in poverty, but believe you are only passing through, therefore you
would not be perpetuating poverty. So, with the elite oppressing the
common people, in a effort to make them unwise, and live in poverty,
this caused the people to be depressed mentally as they started to
believe, and continue to perpetuate both, depression and poverty, as
well as being unwise.
Understanding
King Solomon proverb in verse two, will help us to appreciate our
brain. It is the only thing that truly separates us. I believe it was
the United Negro College Fund that states: A mind is a terrible thing
to waste. It is not hard to believe, that just as in King Solomon
days, the common people really did believe that they could not learn
to be wise. For the elite refused to teach them how to be wise, and
often oppressed, and looked down on them. This conditioned the common
people to really believe they were more likely born with a permanent
learning disability. People that perpetuate poverty, or are
depressed, believe that they do not have a choice. That they can not
get out of poverty, and free themselves from depression, all because
it was first taught to them by the elite, or powers that be in a
racist society. So, by King Solomon teaching the common people to
know wisdom and discipline, this was sort of like a upset for both
the common people and the elite.
For
King Solomon, and the folks in his special elite social class, knew
it was only a matter of teaching the common people wise teaching. He
was more likely frowned on by the elite for doing this teaching, for
having this edge of wisdom, was the only thing that truly separated
the rich from the poor. Sure it was also money and material things,
but as you will learn that with the obtaining of wisdom, a person
could obtain riches and glory in abundance. It was Jesus Christ that
stated on his famous sermon on the mountain, that everyone is anxious
to achieve the things needed to survive. This is seen with the love
of money and material possessions. But Jesus stated that the only
way that the peoples would achieve these things, is with
righteousness, or wisdom. Just like with King Solomon, Jesus also
told this to the lowly, common folks. All people would be anxious as
a matter of fact, and with the commonsense of knowing they have to
survive, or die from a lack of riches. So being anxious was only
natural for all people.
Jesus
did not condemn the people for being anxious for these things. Jesus
condemn them for being unwise, and thinking that their unwise efforts
was going to have them to obtain riches and glory. You would later
learn that a lack of counsel or knowledge is the reason people fail.
And here is Wise King Solomon, just like Jesus, teaching the common
people wisdom and discipline. I am not only a Pastor for The
Perfectionist of God Ministry. I am also a Community Activist. I have
created the Parental Awareness Holiday, in order to have parents and
the children evaluate the parental guidelines used in raising a
child. Once evaluated, the parent and the child would stop the
perpetuation of poverty starting with their own family. I first
introduce this to the Detroit City Council as a petition for a local
holiday, in a effort to later petition this holiday for a national
holiday.
I
hope to urge them to not miss the opportunity to enact this holiday
request, I believe that this holiday will benefit their political
careers, and really make them a star, just as The Honorable Martin
Luther King did for the current activist, and civil rights leaders
today. As a Detroit, Community Activist I feel it is only natural to
introduce this first to the city were I live, and was born in. The
question remains, will the Detroit City Council enact this law for a
citizen that calls himself a Community Activist. The perpetuation or
depression is the perpetuation of poverty. They are one in the same.
Parents could overturn this. This is the only plan that will
eliminate poverty, starting with individual families. Parents play a
crucial role in ending the perpetuation of poverty, because the
perpetuation of poverty is a learning behaviour. Once parents are
forced to be made aware of their parenting methods, they could change
or make adjustments if their parenting methods perpetuate poverty.
Their
children would also be forced to be aware of how they are being
parented. A child could then cause the parent to be aware, and this
also could end the perpetuation of poverty. Whats that holiday
called. Its called Parental Awareness Day. I urge the Detroit City
Council To enact this. They do not need my help. They could enact
this because they personally believe in the holiday, and give me the
credit of creating the idea in the same motion. I have just given
them a solution to a very old problem, laid at their feet. Everyday
that they do not enact this holiday idea, they run the risk of not
benefiting their political careers. Some other politician could do
it, not in their city. Will selfish pride get in their way. For the
lowly citizens deserve this.
I know wisdom is doing the right or perfect thing. For that is what
King Solomon is attempting to teach the common folks.
This
is what Jesus spoke of this on his sermon on the mountain, when he
stated that a person needed to put righteousness first, in order to
obtain riches and glory. Otherwise, a person would not acquire it. It
means that all a common person has to do is learn to be wise. That is
always doing the right or perfect things, and normal common folk
people could learn to do this. Both King Solomon and Jesus Christ
taught the people to be wise. Coming later is just how a common folk
person could obtain wisdom. Now we know that wisdom is always doing
the right or perfect thing. What is discipline? It seems that a
common person has to understand discipline as well as to understand
wisdom. Discipline seems to go hand and hand with wisdom. Its like
you can not have wisdom without discipline. Discipline is a branch of
study like Math or English. This means that discipline must be used
to get or acquire something else. In this manner, it is wisdom.
Discipline
is used to acquire perfection, righteousness, and wisdom. So how
does a person use discipline. Knowing the exact usage of discipline,
a person could use it to obtain wisdom. This is why wisdom and
discipline goes hand and hand. Discipline is the force behind a
person using discipline. That only means that a wise person is wise
by putting forth the effort to be wise. Discipline is the force or
effort needed to be wise. It is knowing what you have to do,
(wisdom), and then having the right effort or force to do it
especially in the midst of other enticing options. That is having the
discipline to be wise when no one cares. Our country even gives its
citizens the option to live in poverty. But as a Community Activist,
I think it is wrong to give children the option to perpetuate
poverty. Like I said earlier, teaching a child to perpetuate poverty
is by wrong a parent. Teaching a child to be lazy, depressed,
criminal, or discouraging a child from asking questions, is also
wrong. It is also wrong for a parent to not teach a child to be
righteous.
This
is exactly why they are the parents. This is also why I created the
holiday. So
discipline is the
practice of training people to obey their own logic of what is right,
by using the threat of punishment if the person fail or refuse to be
wise. Every person would not even get out of bed if there were no
discipline or threat, not only to incorporate wisdom in ones life.
But this should be common knowledge that if you fail to act wisely,
you will be punished by acting unwise, which is a sin in the Bible.
So discipline is administering punishment if a person does not act as
they should. Failing to be wise in life will leave a person with
depression and to perpetuate poverty. I do not believe that people
are not capable of acquiring wisdom. I share this belief the same as
with King Solomon, and Jesus Christ. And just like King Solomon and
Jesus Christ, I believe and understand discipline to administer a
punishment when a person fails to be wise. That's wisdom and
discipline that any person could obtain. Even
the common people that have been tricked they could not obtain wisdom
and discipline. So just as in wisdom, a person would have to use
discipline by using there own willpower.
Proverbs
Chapter 1 Verse 3.
To acquire the discipline
that gives insight, Righteousness,
good judgement, and uprightness.
Discipline
is that force that makes a person do what is perfect or righteous, by
providing a punishment if a person fails to be wise. So, that is the
trick to acquirement to being wise. To be honest, common folks did
not know this simple usage of discipline. Simply put discipline is
the fear or threat of punishment for not doing something. So all a
person has to do in order to be wise in their life, is to think of
the worse that could happen if they fail to be wise. This should make
any person do what is right. It is safe to assume that if a person is
not wise, they refused to think of the consequences of not being
wise. They ignored the consequences when it entered into their minds.
They literally do something to get their minds off of understanding
the consequences.
I
made it my business to understand why a person will avoid
understanding the consequences. I came up with a logical reason. I
personally did this in my own life as well. This was also my problem.
So, writing this is easy, for all I am doing is telling you the truth
as I know it personally. Now why would a person avoid the
consequences of doing something wrong? I think it is because people
fear to think of what they fear. Of course this is a learning
condition. A person learns this from their parents. If their parents
could not deal with fear, it is likely they taught this to their
children. A person could not obtain wisdom without dealing with the
punishment of not being wise. Discipline brings with it fear. Ask
anyone that is unwise why they are not wise. If they tell the truth,
it is because they avoided dealing with the fearful consequences of
not being wise. You will learn that the fear that discipline brings
is good. It seems that all people that are not wise, fear the
consequences of anything bad that could happen. This means any and
all sin.
They
reject the reality of this life, because bad things could happen
regardless if the person is wise or unwise. For unforeseen
occurrences befall all. They are the ones who mostly believe in a
after life, but fail to understand discipline and wisdom. That is my
belief and understanding. I was not always wise because I feared even
dealing with the threat of not being wise. I now believe that this
fear is good. It took me renewing my mind of the conditioning I
received as a child, of being afraid to deal and understand the fear
of bad consequences. You will learn that the wise ones sees the bad,
and then proceeds to conceal themselves. I could not do this by
avoiding the bad consequences of making a bad decision. Many poor or
common folk persons are conditioned to think like this. Franklin
D. Roosevelt stated the famous line,
“that
there is nothing to fear, but fear itself”. Many common folks
believe this means to not fear. I could not tell you what FDR meant,
but to not fear does not make any sense.
Fear
is a protection and the reason a person uses discipline in order to
be wise. So I would think that FDR meant to fear instead of not
fearing, in order to pursue happiness. That's just a logical and
educated guess. Remember that this is wisdom and discipline in
action. That discipline brings the fear of punishment, in the effort
a person does not use wisdom. With that being said, lets first tackle
the discipline that gives insight. That is having the fear
(discipline) of not understanding (or having insight) of something
you are involved in. The trick to getting insight or information in
something you are involved in, is to fear accepting something that
you do not understand. The fear is that, because you do not have
insight in something you are involved in, you will accept it thinking
it will benefit you, when in reality is will harm or kill you. It is
just like a addiction. Every addiction was something that a person
accepted, without full knowledge or insight in.
The
natural fear that goes along with accepting something without
insight, was ignored or avoided, and the person accepted the harmful
thing without understanding it. Its like the persons that does this,
thinks that the extra seconds that it will take to gain insight is
not wise to take. So they get harmed in the process of accepting what
they should not accept. If you think about every time you made a
mistake that you regret, is when you failed to understand something
you should have. Why did you do it without any insight is the
question. Well, remember Adam and Eve. They could have avoided the
tree if they used insight. What made Adam and Eve partake of the
fruit will answer this question. Are you ready for the answer? Adam
and Eve thought they will miss out on something, if they took the
time to get insight into the matter. It was like time ran out for
them to take the time to think. It is the reason we all make snap
decisions. So stop making snap decision is the solution. Insight will
cause you to do what is right.
If
you are worried about doing something you should not, persuade
yourself not to do it before you do it. You will need insight in
order to persuade yourself. You would automatically persuade yourself
against something you believe will harm you. Just do not ignore this
insight thinking you must act in a hurry like Adam and Eve.
Discipline would have been the evidence that insight was used. The
insight to know that taking the fruit will get them killed. The
discipline that they should have used would have told them this, and
prevented them from the partaking of the fruit. Next is the
discipline that gives righteousness. You may say that this is much
like the discipline that gives insight, and all a person has to do is
think about what they are involved in, and they will automatically
know righteousness. This is true but not that easy. You would have to
understand that in a lot of cases, what is right by you is not always
right by others, and vice, verse. This is why every person has the
capacity to determine what is right and wrong for themselves.
You
do not have to take my word for it if you believe in the Bible. In
the Bible after God corrects Adam and Eve for partaking of the fruit,
God awards them with the capacity to determine what is right and
wrong in their life. In this matter Adam and Eve apparently repents
for the partaking of the fruit, after God showed them the life they
would have for disobeying Him. They chose to stay loyal to God, and
were awarded with being just like God. Genesis 3:22.
The
discipline that gives righteousness is to consider your own fate in
any manner. Its the threat that if you do not consider your own fate
in a matter, you just might get yourself killed if you take it for
granted. Someone may be able to handle more then you could in a
situation. It does not mean they are wrong just because you are not
able. Sometimes people are more skilled then you are at something,
because you are fearful of it because of a lack of insight. It will
be wrong to prevent another person from something that is not
necessarily wrong to do. People do this more often then you think.
People
pass down fears of people, places, things, and food just because
close persons did not personally like it. Now the discipline that
gives good judgement. When you make a judgement, you normally take
insight into the consequences of doing, or not doing something. The
discipline is understanding that whatever you choose to do, you will
be doing something, even if you choose to do nothing. So what ever
you choose to do, it could have harmful effects. You could be writing
a wrong, or Wronging a right. Your discipline is to choose your
actions carefully, or else you will fail if you do nothing, or wait
to long. You have two competing things to think about. You must act
or you will fail at it altogether. Discipline will force you to make
a wise decision under pressure. This means you would not even have
the pressure that prevents you from making a decision. You simply
would have learned to stay focused when there is loud distracting
noise. This noise could be in any form. It could be your own
conscious.
You
could be the one that is preventing your own self from making a fair
judgement. Now the discipline that gives uprightness. I get the
impression that uprightness is talking about a persons overall
behavior. Having the right conduct is important especially when
trying to be wise. People trying to be righteous will never make it
without renewing their mind. Whats worse is that these people will
prevent others from trying to be righteous. They will say things
either by their actions or verbally, that trying to be righteous is
a waste of time. Not admitting that they refuse to renew their minds,
or put in 100 percent. The discipline that makes a person upright
will be the courage to hate what is not upright. It was Jesus Christ
who said that a person can not serve two masters. He also stated that
you must be perfect like your heavenly father is perfect. These
statements were from his famous sermon on the mountain. The
discipline to be upright is to deny yourself the option to not be
upright. This is contrary to the United States of America (USA).
The
USA gives its citizen the options to perpetuate poverty if they so
choose. The thing to remember in all of this, is that it is possible
for the common person to obtain wise discipline, that gives insight,
righteousness, good judgement, and uprightness. Remember that these
common folk persons, believed that they could not obtain this
discipline, mainly because of being denied education, and being
oppressed by the powers that be that lived in King Solomon days, as
well as Jesus Christ days. A lack of knowledge is why people fail you
will learn. Isaiah 5: 13. Do not think the lowly people were the only
persons unwise. Their oppressors were also unwise, for they oppressed
mankind, and this is a sin.
Proverbs
Chapter 1 Verse 4.
To
impart shrewdness to the inexperienced; To give a young man knowledge
and thinking ability.
To
impart wisdom to the inexperienced, and to give a young man knowledge
and thinking ability. That is what King Solomon and Jesus Christ
believed that they only needed to do. As I said earlier the
inexperienced were the common folks that were looked down on by the
elite. They were not taught wisdom and discipline because of this
racism. The lowly people ended up believing that they were
permanently inexperienced as a result. The young are deliberately
lied to by their own parents so as to make them obedient. Why not
tell children the truth? If the lowly people was taught wisdom and
not oppressed, they would not have had to be forced to be slaves.
Compare today's modern day slavery. Slavery is employment with better
working conditions.
People
can not stop profiting from lying. People like to be lied to. As a
result of being oppressed by the powers that be, the lowly or common
people in a sense oppressed their own children. This perpetuated
depression, poverty, and slavery. And this is also mental abuse. But
King Solomon is saying that even the young could learn discipline and
wisdom, just like the inexperienced that was never taught discipline
and wisdom, as a way to keep them down or and to oppress them.
Imagine that. Hearing this should bring hope and inspiration. The
fact is that hearing this also could bring shame and further
oppression. Learning that the people you depended on actually were
oppressing you, could bring further depression that comes from hating
your enemy. This is one of the reasons that Jesus Christ stated that
people should love their enemies in his sermon on the mountain.
Because when you hate them you run the risk of depressing yourself.
The hate that you have for others could prevent a person from
achieving greatness.
A
young person will feel the pains of parental neglect in the same way.
They could begin to hate their own parents as a result. This hate
that a young person has for their parents, could further depress
them. It is never wrong to hate your enemies, even if its your own
parents that are your enemies. A young person must learn to love and
hate their neglectful parents also. Today, in the inner city ghettos,
it is filled with young people hating and rebelling against their
parents, to their very own young miserable death. If only they
followed Jesus Christ advise to love their enemies, as well as to
hate them. A young person will learn that their own parents could
also be their enemies. This is a fact, for how else could the
perpetuation of poverty take place. It is because parents teach the
perpetuation of poverty to their own children. Addressing this is no
easy task. Talking about this is even worse. People fear the truth
because it exposes them in the process. But if the truth is not
spoken you will not be free. So praise me for having the courage to
talk about this.
The
reason you should both hate and love your oppressor, because like
yourself, love and hate yourself. All peoples have sin in them they
need to hate. But love conquers the hate of sin. Instead of keeping
with the truth, such a person is loving a lie instead. It is the
reason the elite oppressed the common folks, so as to control, and
appear better then them. That parents oppressed their own children to
control them also, and appear as good people in the public as well.
Not all parents are like this. Just the ones who perpetuate poverty.
They teach their own children to strive to be poor and hate being
rich. Now first let me prove to you that a person must hate their
enemies. You will find this fact in Psalms 87:10, and Proverbs 8:13.
You already know that Jesus Christ stated that you should love your
enemies as well on his sermon on the mountain. The problem with
people that are depressed, in poverty, and oppressed by their
enemies, is that they hate only. The key is to love and hate, or love
to hate. Even with sin you must love and hate sin. Why?
Because
without sin you would not try to be wise. Your enemy teaches you to
not let them or anyone take advantage of you anymore. The fear of
failure will cause a person to make sure they are righteous. Is not
the fear of depression, death, and sin good also? In this matter the
inexperienced and the young must pay the penalty of not knowing. But
paying a small penalty while you are inexperienced and young, will
make a person strong if they are determined. The inexperienced and
the young would have to learn that they must love and hate their
enemies, if they are to become stronger by the sin or enemy. King
Solomon is saying that you could learn this as a inexperienced and
young person. A inexperienced and young person are more likely to
believe they have a learning disability, when oppressed to be that
way by their enemies. The fact is that weak people do oppress
others, when they do not possess the skill to work together. They
know that once a oppressed person becomes wise, they will become
wiser and abandon them.
So
they employ methods to keep you depended on them even if as it kills
the lowly person in the process. This is seen with both a weak parent
and a ruler. They are in power by oppression only. Not because they
are wise. They are in power but will not be praised. For they are not
honest and fair. Anyhow, this is not a excuse to be unwise. You may
even say that you were born in poverty, or that your parents harmed
or neglected you. You still would not have a reason to be unwise.
The only reason you would have for not being wise is mental
retardation. Do not get this confused with a mental illness like
depression. Depression and oppression is a learned behavior. Any
thing learned could be scraped and renewed. A mental illness is
caused by the repeating of something that is harmful to you. You
could stop harming yourself as soon as you understand this. Then you
would free yourself from your depressive mental illness. You can not
free yourself from a mental retardation. A mentally retarded person
will not even offer up an excuse.
A
mentally ill person will always offer up an excuse for their
depression. This is what is keeping them depressed. Not the
depressive condition. Anyone could free themselves from a depressive
condition if they are acting retarded. If a person is holding you
back unjustified, it means that you are worth more then they are
treating you. And so it is with a harsh ruler on a lowly people, or a
parent to a child. However the situation you are, or were mistreated,
you could still be wise as you will find as you keep reading.
Remember just because you must love your enemies, does not mean you
are not suppose to hate them also. However, love to hate so as to not
depress yourself in the process of hating your enemy. A person will
stay inexperienced, and young and immature if they only hated their
enemy or sin. You would find that God made evil or sin for a purpose.
That means that evil and sin is good. It is good because God created
it for a purpose. Already you know that purpose if you are wise to
know.
You
know that it is evil and sin that motivates you to pursue
righteousness and perfection. I truly believe that that is the reason
for evil and sin. To produce a perfect person. If a parent
disciplines their children by some form of punishment, in order that
they learn to become better children, you then will understand my
belief, for the purpose that God created evil in the world. Later you
will learn the exact reason you must hate. Yes to perfect you, but
there still is another logical reason. Proverbs 16:4.
Proverbs
1 Verse 5
A
wise person listens and takes in more instruction; A man of
understanding acquires skillful direction.
This
is why wise King Solomon and Jesus Christ preached to the lowly
common people. It is because of this message that they to could learn
to be wise, by listening and taking in more instructions in a matter.
And that a person of understanding acquires skillful direction. The
religious leaders and the special elite looked down on the lowly
people in Bible days, just as in today's society. People that do not
maximize their full potential right now are insulting God. Choosing
to not maximize ones potential to make full use of ones life now, is
a choice that one have made just because they were told they had no
choice. In the Bible days lowly common people were considered to be
slaves to the rich. Just like today.
It
is modern day slavery with more benefits and better working
conditions. That's the only think that has changed. People will
always be treated like slaves by rich people. There is another thing
that change in today's world. Some lowly or common folk people have
become rich, and now they got to own slaves as well. Modern days
slave that is. These once lowly common folks have learned to be rich.
Somehow they thought and grew rich. They tapped into something that
was already created in them to not be lowly anymore. If a person does
not learn to be wise they will become depressed in my belief. It is
the curse of God that will cause a person to become depressed, and
then suicidal. Let me explain: In the Bible we learn that God created
man in Gods likeness and image. Adam and Eve both. This means that
Adam and Eve were to be Gods knowing both good and bad. That is being
able to determine what is good or bad for themselves. They were able
to do this because being created in God image and likeness.
How
could people refuse to be God if they were created in Gods image. It
is because of being able to refuse, and they refused because they
were taught to refuse by the enemy. As you know already that the
Devil enticed Adam and Eve to partake of the tree. The Devil could do
this because Adam and Eve had the options to disobey God. How did the
disobey God since they were their own God? They simply refused to
listen and take in more knowledge. If they did they would not have
partaken of the tree. It was their own logical mind or consciousness
that punished them. Like today, some people will get the notion to
not maximize their full potential because of a after life. Its like
the Devil speaking to Eve convincing her to take the fruit. Something
that she knew was wrong and did not make any sense. Today because of
sin people are not maximizing their potential, even though they know
doing so does not make any sense. If God created you in His image,
why must you insult Him by becoming depressed and lazy.
The
slave master told the slaves that their was a after life that will
end their misery, and all the slaves had to do was be perfect,
obedient slaves, and to endure the pains of oppression. Christmas
also was used by the slave master as well. Good slaves received
gifts. He says to be good slaves and obey your master, or you would
not receive presents or a gift. I believe and have hope in the
afterlife also, but I believe I must still compliment God, for the
Bible tells me I was created in Gods image, not mans image. So as a
result I will be a God by maximizing my potential in achieving my
desires, or actually insult God. I must be perfect like God is
perfect. Matthew 5:48. Sin is the reason some people feel that God
will destroy this world and replace it with a new world order.
Believing this gives the impression that The Almighty God made a
mistake, and did not intend to create evil and sin.
But
according to the Bible God created sin and evil for a purpose from
the very start Proverbs 16:4. Adam and Eve were placed in a world
full of sin and the Devil from the very start. Sin and evil was apart
of Gods original plan when God created the world. How is it that Gods
original plan is not working. Is it not because of the evil and sin
in the world do you pursue righteousness? Adam and Eve were to
dominate and cultivate the world with the sin present to motivate
them. However, they refused to dominate and cultivate the world
because they could make a choice not to. Just because the Devil
enticed them. It is as though Adam and Eve were not expecting for
anyone to lie to them, or get them to harm themselves. What do you
think. Do you yourself think that Adam and Eve did not know of the
tricks of the enemy? Or do you think that Adam and Eve simply put
their guard down. Because God corrected them over the matter, I would
think they should have known better.
I
do believe that Adam and Eve learned from the correction of God, for
both Adam and Eve were awarded with their eyes open just like God,
after Gods correction, which leads me to believe that Adam and Eve
repented. That Gods original plan was for Adam and Eve to be just
like God. For they were created in Gods image and likeness. After
receiving Gods correction and admonishment, Adam and Eve were awarded
to be just as God intended in His original plan for mankind. We could
learn from the way God has corrected Adam and Eve. The Devil and sin
played a huge part in making this happen. In a sense, both Adam and
Eve learned from their mistake in being tricked by the Devil to
partake from the forbidden tree, thanks to Gods correction. We learn
to never put our guard down either, and to expect the unexpected.
That people will entice us to do bad by tricking us in a way that
could harm, or even kill us. In verse 5 we learn that all that we
need to do is pay attention, and keep paying attention.
That
this process in itself, will cause us to demand or require skillful
direction. Because paying attention and listening is a discipline or
skill to be come wise. Now this is how to obtain perfection,
righteousness, or wisdom. In Matthew chapter 5 verse 48, we learn
that we are to be perfect like God is perfect. This is how The
Perfectionist of God Ministry has been created. It simply means that
a person is to be perfect 100 percent. Mind, body, and soul. One
cannot benefit from God if they do not renew their minds over. When a
person chooses to do righteousness, they must completely renew their
minds over. It is sad that some people will not do this. They love
their old ways still. They refuse to change. They are in a sense,
worshiping two masters. Their trying to worship God and hold on to
their old personalities. Nothing has power over a person. A person
might believe that something that they are addicted to, have the
power to dominate them. If this was true, it will not be the persons
fault if they bring harm to themselves by being harmed by their
addictions.
Adam
and Eve would not have been corrected by God for partaking of the
forbidden tree. Whats more Adam and Eve would not have repented. If
the thing that you are addicted to has no power, then why are people
not able to release themselves from it then. It is because the person
still eagerly hope to achieve a benefit from the thing they are
harmed by. This hope causes them to be enticed, persuaded, or trapped
to accept the harmful thing, without understanding the true nature of
what they have accepted. They want it so much that they accepted it
without seeing the true nature of the addiction. King Solomon is
saying all you have to do is pay attention and get more
understanding, in order to be wise. Even you. Even the common person.
This is what being a perfectionist is all about. Being a
perfectionist of God simply means that, a person try their very best
to be perfect 100 percent like God. This means a person must renew
their minds or personalities. This person will strive to be perfect
continuously in all that he or she does.
This
is 100 percent. This is renewing your mind or old personalty. A
person will receive immediate gratification, or true happiness as a
result. Why is this? I have found that it is all in the thrill of
hunt to be perfect. That is, to be perfect is to simply try to be
perfect, by being a perfectionist of God, giving 100 percent effort
in doing this. If a person fails at this. If a person cannot renew
their mind this way, they will be cursed by God into a depressed mind
or mental illness (Romans 1:28). Everyone has the desire to achieve
riches and glory, even the depressed person that is cursed by God for
not being righteous. But the depressed will keep trying to obtain
riches but will not be able to obtain it. The unwise person refuses
to simply understand his actions in pursuing his desires, therefore
he or she will only obtain a frustrations of plans or depression. All
they have to do to obtain righteousness is to simply pay attention,
and seek more understanding in a matter. Remember what Jesus Christ
said on his sermon on the mountain.
He
said everyone is pursuing riches and glory, or the things needed to
survive. But put righteousness first, and all these things will be
added to a person. Sadly, some people will curse God for trying to
be perfect and failing at it. They do not understand it is because
they refuse to fully renew their minds. They wish to serve two
masters, which is impossible to do. They are dominated or enticed by
the world, because they have given their consent. Now to be a
Perfectionist of God, one has to first enjoy the thrill of striving
to be perfect in everything one does. This is immediate
gratification. You will be giving yourself immediate gratification
when you do this. No one could offer you anything better then this.
Everything else will not come close to this immediate gratification.
When a person strives to be perfect like God, they simply try to be
perfect 100 percent of their time, in all of their dealings of their
mind, body, and inspirations. This is why being a Perfectionist of
God is a obsession.
A
person will be obsessed with being able to access this immediate
gratification. This immediate gratification is the steady hope and
anticipation, of the wonderful results of striving for perfection.
With being a perfectionist, a person just anticipates that their
striving for perfection will work wonders. They truly believe this.
This is what keeps them being a perfectionist. Since being a
perfectionist bring a person immediate gratification, when a person
is not striving for perfection they immediately becomes depressed.
They oppress themselves by refusing to strive for perfection. People
fail at striving for perfection, or trying to be the best at
everything they do because of sin. Because, they believe that sin is
imperfect and have no use. But this is untrue. God created sin for a
purpose and that is what makes sin and evil perfect. People reject
their life and want to live again in a after life. But if they only
would strive for perfection as a respond to evil and sin, they will
be saved from depression and death the evil and sin brings.
But
because there are unforeseen occurrences that could cause a persons
accidental death, people reject this life while hoping for a perfect
after life. King Solomon is saying that all a lowly person has to do
is pay attention, and seek more instructions and they will be wise.
This means that the person paying attention will be striving to pay
attention. This striving is perfect because in order to dominate
something, a person will first have to understand it. Paying
attention and seeking more information, will have you to being able
to understand confusing things. Your enemy confuses things in order
to frustrate, depress, and oppress a person, in order to dominate
that person to their death. Pay attention in order to dominate, or
pursue your perfection. Keep paying attention to while your continue
to dominate, or pursue your perfection.
Proverbs
Chapter 1 Verse 6
To
understand a proverb and a puzzling saying,
the words of the wise and their
riddles.
First lets recap on the
definition of discipline and wisdom. First we learn that discipline
and wisdom goes hand and hand. In order to obtain wisdom a person
really needs discipline. Discipline brings with it the fear of
punishment for not using wisdom. Discipline is a strategy to avoid
the punishment. Discipline is the motivation or reinforcement to
pursue wisdom in order to avoid the harm of the punishment of death
or sin. Discipline is a strategy to avoid the fear of death or sin,
by pursuing perfection, righteousness, or wisdom. Wisdom is having
the discipline to act perfect, righteous, or wise in ones actions
period. In Proverbs chapter 1 verse 6 we read: That discipline will
give a person the wisdom to understand a proverb and a puzzling
saying, the words of the wise and their riddles.
This gives me the impression
that sometimes in life, that life could be confusing. In fact, life
is certain to be confusing. Why? It is because everybody hides their
true motives and intentions. This is evidence by the fact that we
think to ourselves. We hide who we truly are, our beliefs, our
motives, and intentions away from people we do not fully trust. We
trust no one to have access to our true nature, not even our close
loved ones. We feel to just tell people what they want to hear, or
what they need to know that is more likely to benefit us. In
conclusion on the matter everyone lies to each other, in order to
protect themselves from harm or potential harm. Lying to someone does
not mean that you are wrong, is trying to harm someone, or not being
fair and honest. It just means that telling the truth is not always
helpful to some people, especially when we are not sure how they will
take it. For example, you are not gay or a homosexual, but you are
for gay marriage. You do not believe that marrying a person of the
same sex is wrong before God. To you marrying a person is
nothing more then a contract with them. People do it all the time.
Your just partnering with a person for survival. Your moral belief it that
people should only have sexual intercourse with the intentions of
conceiving a child. You simply belief that two people of the same sex
should marry to help them survive, just like any other person.
Marriage is a legal contract that binds a people for the purpose of
surviving life. The marriage contract comes with special benefits
similar to all business contract. That is why people enter in to all
types of business contracts. To be married to the same sex for this
reason alone, without sexual intercourse is simply intelligent. But
not everyone is intelligent. If you tell someone your belief in same
sex marriages, they just may not understand based on their
intelligence. You say all people should have the protection of the
court system. Everyone should be able to have this contract. So, the
person that hides their belief becomes a impostor.
Sure they may be able to say
that they belong to this religion that does not believe in gay
marriage, but the fact is no one will test their faith. So, that
person faith is a mystery by this fact. If you try to investigate
them you will be accused of insulting them. That is the reason people
can get away with lying. It is because their true beliefs, feelings,
intentions, or motives is no ones business, so no one question their
faith, including their religion. As people, we could only pay
attention to a persons actions. We will never believe what they say
anyway. We will only take a risk with them based on the proof of
their current actions. Their true beliefs, feelings, intentions, or
motives will always be a mystery. We will never know the truth. Maybe
we might think we are good at determining the truth. But we are only
kidding ourselves if we do. People could take a lie all the way to
their graves. Even our loved ones. Now, King Solomon is telling the
lowly common folks, that they could understand that which is a
mystery, a puzzling saying, or riddle.
While some people could hide
the truth forever, sometimes they design poor ways to keep the truth
hidden, especially when they believe that the other persons are
unwise to even know. So they intentionally try to hide the truth by
creating, mysteries, puzzles, and riddles. Paying attention will
discover a illogical thing. King Solomon essentially is saying that
through paying attention and seeking more insight in a matter, that
even the lowly common persons could know the secret puzzling things
of the rich. The thing they try to get the lowly person to believe is
illogical. It is covered in a mystery, puzzling saying, and a riddle.
For many lowly common folks have gotten fooled and caught up, in a
covered up, confusing lie that the lowly person could not understand.
These lies were covered in a mystery, puzzling saying, and riddles.
King Solomon is arming the lowly common people with the discipline to
understand a mystery, puzzling saying, and the riddles of a person,
place, or thing that could possibly harm them. Or that is still
harming them right now. That all they have to do is lookout for the
illogical thing. Then they will spot it. You can only do this by not
trusting people. Wise people do not trust a person. Trust has got to
be earned. That trust is earned by paying attention only, by
verifying the information every time. Even if I have no choice, I
will not believe until I verify every time.
Proverbs Chapter 1 Verse 7
The fear of
God is the beginning of knowledge. Only fools despise wisdom
and discipline.
The fear of God is why a person
use discipline in their life. Discipline is based off of the fear of
God. Discipline is a strategy to avoid the fear of harm or death. The
fear of God means the gift of fear. Fear protects a person from harm
if used appropriately. This is why fear is a gift from God, because
it protects a person from harm or death. In order for a person to
fear they have to pay close attention. They have to seek more
understanding of the reasons they will have to fear. Fear is the
beginning of knowledge. So a person will have to live a life of fear.
Fools despise fear as though fear has no good purpose. That is mainly
because they were not taught how to deal with fear. But fear is the
beginning of knowledge. That means that fear is everything.
Fear is life. Whether you
believe in God or not, fear is natural, and a gift that aides our
survival. So why do people despise fear? The Bible calls such people
fools for despising fear. For fear is the beginning of knowledge.
That means that a person can not avoid dealing with fear. That fear
is reality. So if a person is not taught to deal with fear they will
end up depressed, because they will not be dealing with reality. To
fear a person has got to pay attention, and be focused on everything
one does. This is because they fear everything they do could harm
them if they are not wise. To fear is to be wise the same as to have
discipline. For discipline is based off of fear. Fools despise fear
and also discipline. This means that they refuse to accept the
reality of life. This also means that they have been taught or
conditioned to avoid fearful things. Parents who perpetuate poverty
teach their own children to perpetuate poverty. They do this by
teaching their children to not deal with the reality of fear, just
like their own parents taught them to not deal with the reality of
fear.
But not dealing with fear is
what fools have despised. How could a person avoid the dangers of
life if they do not fear it first. They cannot. Its impossible! Fear
makes us protective. It is only natural for a parent to teach their
children to deal with fearful things in order to avoid it. Not to
pretend like it does not exits in order to avoid it. For example: a
parent will teach a child to not bother the stove or electrical
outlets in order to protect them from harm or death. Again, it is
only natural for a parent to teach their children to fear things that
could harm them, in order for their children to protect themselves.
The parent will discipline the child to avoid the harmful situation.
In turn the child will learn the art of discipline and fear in the
process, as a protection. The question is why do some parents stop
doing this, since fearing things that could harm the child, really
does protects a child? The Question is why do people be fools
themselves and choose to despise fear? Fear is unavoidable as it is
the beginning of knowing. Everyone fears but not everyone respond to
fear the same. That's the difference. Not everyone respond to fear
appropriately. In order to fear one has to pay close attention so as
to be cautious. That means to not fear one has to simply not be aware
of what is going on. Period! A person could avoid dealing with fear,
but can not avoid the consequences of not dealing with fear. The only
reaction to fear that I know, is that it will excite a person or
depress a persons. Fear does not automatically depress or excite a
person. This depends on the reaction or respond of the person as they
are confronted with fear. So a person deals with fear even if they
chose to not deal with fear. This is seen with people not wanting to
see or hear anything bad or evil. People that avoid the news or
politics. Avoiding the news or politics is motivated off of fear and
a person is not righteous for doing so. A person avoiding the news or
politics is motivated off of fear, that dealing with the news or
politics is useless, or will not help in avoiding harm or death to
themselves. They might as well commit suicide for not protecting
themselves from fear. Its like a person refusing to
act righteous or wise altogether, because they fear being righteous
or wise will not help them. It is like a person refusing to get a
job, follow the law, or be healthy, because they fear that doing so
will not help them, or is useless. Make sense? Lets see.
Unfortunately, some people do not act righteous or wise because of
their religious belief. They say they are not going to put faith in
man, but they look to God as their only source of faith. But if they
really thought like this they would not do other things either, like
be employed, be healthy, obey the law, go to school, or try to be
righteous. Why? It is because in all the disciplines that I named
came from mankind. This shows that these people do have faith in
mankind. However, this also shows that these persons is unwise and is
insulting God in the process. It shows that the person is despising
the fear of God, by not dealing appropriately with the fear of God.
They are choosing to be fools according to the very Bible they claim
to have faith in.
To vote or get involved in
politics is a attempt of a person to try to better their life. It
does not mean to put faith in mankind over God. Choosing to not deal
with the fear that voting will not help, is like not choosing to be a
law abiding citizens, because a person fears that being law abiding
will not help in this world. It is exactly why King Solomon called
such people fools for not fearing. Discipline is the evidence that a
person has fear. But fear caused a person to not vote and this
decision is unwise. Why? Because fear supposed to motivate a person
to do wise things, not unwise things. Remember that fear could cause
depression or excitement in a person. Depression is when a person
fears and makes the wrong decision. Excitement is when a person fears
and makes the right decision. Not voting and getting involved in
politics leaves a person depressed, for it is the best a person could
do with what they have, and they have chosen to not do it. This fear
of God should cause you to vote in this matter.
The fear of God should cause
you to do the best you could do, or to be righteous in the midst of
this sinful world. So fear God. What does this mean then. Fearing God
is to fear imperfection, and be motivated to pursue perfection.
That's all the fearing of God means. To fear imperfection, and to let
this fear motivate a person to pursue perfection. For God only have
one law, and that law is to cultivate and dominate the earth. Man is
to rule over the earth. Voting is all he could do in order to rule.
This is why God stated to Adam and Eve, to dominate and cultivate the
earth. Adam and Eve were to rule themselves, determining what was
right and wrong for themselves. So why did God punish Adam and Eve
for partaking of the fruit, if Adam and Eve were their own Gods
determining what is right and wrong? The answer is simple but if
you are not careful you would have missed it. The answer is this: God
only told Adam and Eve to cultivate and dominate the earth, by
default God only told Adam and Eve to not let the Earth dominate
them. Partaking of the fruit meant
that the world dominated Adam and Eve. Once God corrected Adam and
Eve by detailing the life they will live if they continued to be
dominated by the earth, Adam and Eve repented and God awarded or
blessed them with being Just like God, knowing both good and bad. The
conclusion, fear imperfection as God intended, in order to pursue
perfection. Since fear is good, why do people despise fear. It is
because fear has caused people to be depressed and commit suicide.
They were tricked to despise fear. All that is needed is to pay
attention and to seek more instructions. Then a person that pays
attention will demand or acquire this skillful direction, that one
gets from simply paying attention, because this paying attention and
seeking more information makes a person to dominate, and to achieve
their desires. Hear is how a person actually apply paying attention
in their life, in order to dominate and achieve their desires: First
off, a person has always got to focus or pay attention to themselves
in order to have self-control. Self-control is only achieved
through paying attention to oneself, and seeking more information of
oneself. Only then could a person pursue perfection or righteousness.
Secondly, a person has to pay attention to a another person, place,
or thing that he wishes to take advantage of. People are always
available to be bought, or paid to do something beneficial for
others, if the price is right. That is the purpose of other people,
places, or things in our world's economy. One has to pay attention
and seek more information in others. Whether a business partner or a
employee. A person must pay
attention to themselves, another person, place, and thing because they
all will turn against him or her if he does not control them. That's
right! He will turn against himself just like his enemy. The moment
that he trust himself or another person is when he is harmed. As long
as he is in control of himself and his relationships with other
people places and things he is alright. He must not trust others in
the same way that he cannot trust himself. A
person will understand that if he or she does not have self-control
he or she will self-destruct. This is why a person must have
self-control. If a person could trust themselves they will not have
to have self-control. Many people have self-harmed themselves because
they simply took themselves for granted. Putting their guard down on
themselves caused them to self-destruct. Its that simple. If you
have to be on guard for yourself, you have to guard yourself against
other people. Family members and all. If you have to be on guard from
yourself, you have to simply be on guard from everything else.
Proverbs Chapter 1 Verse 8
Listen, my son, to the
discipline of your father,
And do not forsake the
instruction
of your mother.
Understand very closely. A son
or daughter is to listen to their father and mother, and not to
forsake their instructions. This does not say that a person must obey
a unwise parent. But again, it is only when a person pays attention
and seeks more instructions, are they able to forsake a unwise
counsel from their parents. Is such a person to put their parents
over their own logic? If so why must a person listen. Is it for the
purpose to obey their parents only? The truth is that once a person
understands a unwise parent, they often refuse to obey them, or leave
their parents guidance when ready. This is why a person should listen
to a unwise parents. Only then could they
righteously forsake them. Listening first is the only way to forsake
a unwise parent. Forsake a unwise parent too late, one will only
suffer bad consequences. This is seen in the perpetuation of poverty
that parents pass to their own children. My research has concluded
that a child has got to understand this at a young age. If not the
child will be conditioned to perpetuate both depression and poverty.
If a child believes that they should always obey their unwise parent,
their parent will be their God controlling their life forever. A
child must break away from a unwise parent, for not doing so will
destroy his or her life. I recall a statement Jesus Christ give
concerning this at Matthew 10:35. Jesus Christ states: “For I have
come to set a man against his farther, a daughter against her
mother...”. How do you suggest a child goes against or disobeys
their parent. A child has to first listen to their parents, by not
forsaking them until after they have seen their parents are unwise.
King Solomon is right to teach the lowly common people, as well as
the inexperienced and the young to be wise, by paying attention.
Proverbs Chapter 1 Verse 9
They
are an attractive wreath for your head and a fine ornament for your
neck.
It is indeed a self-interested
decision to be wise because of its attractive benefits. This message
by King Solomon is just like the message that Jesus Christ gave, on
his famous sermon on the mountain. Jesus said that in order to obtain
riches and glory a person must be righteous first. King Solomon's
message is fitting that wisdom, is a attractive wreath for your head,
and a fine ornament for your neck. It is a fact that people of all
the nations want to look their best, or be attractive in their
appearances. This is how to persuade a person to be wise. Being wise
is not always easy. In fact, it is pain stalking. A person has also
got to renew their minds totally.
A persons has got to literally
pay attention very closely to themselves, in order to perfect
themselves. A person must pay attention to themselves as to monitor
all of their behaviors and mental processes. A person must really be
a perfectionist in every sense. To feel and embrace every action,
emotional feeling, and touch in order to perfect themselves. To
perfect a persons actions, emotions, feelings, and touch one must
have a compelling reason to do so. To in a sense dominate the world
and obtain a attractive wreath for ones head, and an ornament for
ones neck, just for being wise is surely a compelling reason for
being wise. Especially, when all a person has to do is simply pay
attention. Jesus Christ said that the world will never obtain riches
and glory, without first being righteous. All the people of the world
have the same desires to live a perfect life. It is a compelling
reason to be righteous, if while being righteous, all these other
things will be added to a person that all the people everywhere
desires.
Proverbs Chapter 1 Verse 10
My son, if sinners try to
entice you, do not consent.
It is not a matter of if a
person will be enticed, the question is when, where, what, why, and
how a persons is enticed. Every person that is enticed by a thing
has to first want what it offers. There is no other way to not give
consent to something, unless one does not want what sin has to offer.
The world will not offer a person anything. That is why I believe the
Bible tells us to cultivate and dominate the world. In other words to
respectfully take it with our God given skills. For God created
mankind in Gods image and likeness, in order for mankind to cultivate
and dominate the world. A person, place, or thing will harm you if
you do not dominate it. You do not give consent to it even though it
offers the opportunity to you.
You do not give consent every
time a person, place, or thing offers or promises you something. You do not have to give consent
because you have that right to not give it. You were not convinced
that it benefited you in the long term, or even the short. The
person, place, or thing did not even care to explain itself to you,
but wanted you to consent anyway. People get distracted from
understanding a thing fully for them to be able to consent to a
unwise thing. So the trick is to never be distracted or unfocused, so
as to not consent to something unwise. Here is the main reason people
consent to unwise things. You ready? It is because they are not doing
the right thing. I mean this literally. That because a person is not
doing the right thing, they are doing the wrong things as a result of
not doing the right thing. It like having an idle mind. Having a idle
mind is not choosing to do the right something. A person with a idle
mind is still doing something though. They are just doing choosing to
do nothing.
Doing nothing is doing
something. Just not something constructive, perfect, righteous, or
wise. No one is completely idle or they will be dead. The just have
made the decision to not live in reality. That is why people rather would
say they were doing nothing, rather then say they are sinning or
doing something unwise. Either way a person is not doing what is
righteous, and has therefore consented to sinning. A person should
always be doing, or trying to do the right thing. This is not just
for a Perfectionist of God either. Perfectionist of God is a
discipline, a branch of study, and a religion. It is man made. Any
person could be a Perfectionist of God, with or without a Bible.
Every discipline in life is based off of commonsense or it would not
be understandable. People consent to sin because they do not
understand the logic of it. In other words if they understood the
logic of sin they would not consent to it. Proverbs chapter 10
states: “My son, if sinners try to entice you, do not consent”.
To help you on not consenting to sin I write this today. King Solomon
wrote the whole book of Proverbs. Although, I am not a king like King
Solomon, I am a child of God. I am known to call myself a God Human
Being rather then a child of God. For God created me in his image and
likeness. Genesis 1:26. That said, lets first look at why a person
consents to sinning as sin is depression and death. The first reason
I believe a person consents to sinning, is that they allow for the
sinful thing to entice them. A sinful thing is something that makes
no sense. So, a person allows a sinful thing to entice them. How
could this happen. This happen when a person is not doing what is
right. When a person is not doing what is right, they are deficient
of the feeling of doing things right. Therefore When a person is low,
they look to other things to fill the gap. This is when a person lets
sin entice them. Its like they look at sin and say, you're up, come
and try to entice me, for I am low and need to get right. People do a
lot of sinning in the name of getting right.
Just to name a few, people
drink alcohol, take illegal drugs, partake in risky behavior, just to
try to get right. That is why a person consents to sin. We already
learned that a person gets low from not being righteous, and then
they look for sin to entice them, in which they end up consenting.
The question is why do you consent to sinning when you get low, when
sin is death. This is part of the reason. There is another reason
why. It is because a person could not deal with the mental pain of
feeling low or depressed. When a person is depressed they feel they
could not even live or function. Depression literally comes with a
whole lot of other symptoms or mental illnesses. Some of these are
low self- esteem, paranoia, schizophrenia, and suicide. Depression is
the major mental illness that brings in all the others as symptoms.
Disclaimer: I am not a mental health expert. These statements
concerning mental health are my personal and unprofessional opinion.
If a person is experiencing any mental health, they should consult a
professional mental health worker. Disclaimer end. I had to say that
because my knowledge of the causes of mental health come from the
Bible only. It is the result of a person not doing what is perfect or
right. Romans 1:28 This is the reason why. A person literally goes
through mental pain for not trying to be a Perfectionist of God. What
the sin. It is when a person abandons their own mind and depend on
another. They abandon their own logical mind. As
a easy route a person may want to avoid thinking for themselves. They
feel if they could just take a drink, take drugs, or just don't think
about the consequences, and do nothing, they will be fine. This is
not using a persons own logical reasoning and, or brain. What happens
is that a persons is likely depressed already, and wish to stay that
way and be lazy, but still acquire their desires by taken a easy fix
to the problem, and this usually means to be unwise or to sin. When
is a person most likely to sin?It is when they are depressed or lazy.
It is when they do not think they could do the right thing.
That
is to pay attention and think out a logical way to their problem.
They refuse to. Were does sin takes place. Well that is easy. People
are more likely to consent to sin were they feel safe to do so. So
the enemy appeals to their need to be safe. They commit to sin and
trust the enemy, thinking that they will be fine. No consequences.
This it when they put their guards down. They are tricked, lied to,
defrauded on, and/or psychologically manipulated on. The enemy
mentally abuses them in order to control them. So how do a person
consent to depression, death, and sin. Through the use of
psychological manipulation. Psychological
manipulation is a type of social influence that aims to change the
behavior or perception of others through lying, being deceptive, or
depressing, or o pressing others through mental abuse. People
control other persons psychologically for a benefit. A parent
psychologically manipulate their own children in a good way in
discipline. To manipulate or control a person in this manner is not
wrong. But
if a parent or person manipulate a person to perpetuate poverty it is
not only wrong, but it is a crime. A
person gets another person to consent to sin, depression, and death
by psychological manipulation. This is how a person consents to sin.
They were tricked, bamboozled, hoodwinked, led astray. To protect
oneself from being fooled this way, King Solomon taught the lowly
people to pay attention, and they will be able to protect themselves.
Even a lowly person that has been looked down on. Even a person
formally known to perpetuate poverty can learn wisdom. As a Community
Activist I see that the people living in poverty has accepted a
rigged economical system. This system was given to the poor to help
them create employment and self-sufficiency. This economic system
is called welfare. It is apart of the Social Security Act of 1935.
This act was signed into law by President Roosevelt. The law aided
the poor, the elderly, the unemployed, and the children. It was a
economical system better known as United States Welfare System. It
also provided for low income apartments or projects. There were
several amendments to this act as it did not end the perpetuation of
poverty. It was a rigged system at best to make the poor even poorer,
and the rich richer. This was the argument of the civil rights
leaders representing the poor people. In 1964 President Lyndon B.
Johnson continued the act goal in his famous, War on Poverty Act.
This act created more social programs to assist the poor like, Head
Start and Jobs Corps. Finally, President Bill Clinton ended welfare
as we know it, putting a cap on the years a person could receive in
welfare in 1996. In all amendments to the Social Security Acts of
1935, it has not ended the perpetuation of poverty. This brought on
welfare reform debates nationwide by different organizations. Some
believe that the welfare, or social economical system first created
for the poor, was a rigged system to begin with. The reason for this
is that of the racist problem. The problem of the rich keeping the
poor in poverty to own the masses of production. These
are some of the arguments of the proponents for welfare reform. That
the states should not get to implement the welfare program. That it
is the states that perpetuates poverty by implementing welfare. In
all the acts of the Social Security Acts, the state were given the
opportunity to implement the acts for the poor people living in their
states. The welfare problem was because of the states some welfare
proponents claim, and the Federal Government should regulate the
programs implementation on the poor more. It is the very poor people
that have trusted the states to their very down fall. Less regulation
means more poverty for the poor. They have consented to sin in the
process. That is why as a Community Activist in The City of Detroit I
am for welfare reform. Welfare is a rigged economical system that
perpetuates poverty. It currently discriminates against the poor in
employment.
The states discriminates on the
poor workers by denying them the freedom to work as a legal
independent contractors working for the same businesses, or other
citizens. Businesses likes to hire sales representative, transportation divers (Uber & Lift) as
independent contractors but because of this discrimination they can
not do so on the states controlled employment agency. Citizens that would like to hire other citizens as independent
contractors can not because of this discrimination as well. This
discrimination is all because of greed by the states to collect
taxes because a independent contractor has to willingly pay their own taxes. A employer can not do this for a independent contractor. So the states hinder poor persons from gaining other legal options
in their Federal Funded employment agencies. Because the states employment agency discriminates equally amongst the black and white concerning this matter, a person cannot file a discrimination lawsuit claiming employment discrimination by the states employment agency. But they can say they are harassed by this discrimination as it is unfair based on the states own laws for legal employment. That a person whether black or white is stressed or harassed by not given all employment options by the states. By the way, all the states are united on this issue and have the same employment agencies that is unfair in their employment agencies. The ironic thing is that all the states has legalized independent contractors and other business opportunities with business as well as working for individual citizens.
I have filed a employment harassment complaint with the city of Detroit. I am asking for your support. Thank you for your time in
this matter. I will continue with Proverbs chapter 1 verse 11-14.
Proverbs
Chapter 1 Verse 11-14
If
they say: “Come with us. Let us set an ambush to shed blood. We
will lie hidden, waiting for innocent without cause 12. We will
swallow them alive as the Grave
does,
Whole, like those going down to the pit. 13. Let us seize all their
precious treasures; We will fill our houses with spoil. 14. You
should join us,
And
we will all share equally what we steal.
This
is what sin offers a person to consent to doing sin. Empty promises.
Empty promises. But yet and still people gives in to sin, for the
reason that they are tricked into believing a lie. The lie sounds so
good that a person goes after the sin like it will not harm them.
People have no choice but to live with the enemy. The trouble is a
person drops their guard in the process. At a persons very home the
enemy dwells. Because the enemy is also yourself. That is why could
not drop your guard from yourself. As
soon as you do you will be distracted. Sin is in everyone. You will
be thinking that you are safe. That know harm could come to you. You
want to be safe in the process. Some people frown on my words for
saying that everyone is your enemies, including your loved ones. But
if you are a enemy to yourself, and must be on guard from your own
imperfections, why must you place another over yourself. It is you
who looks at sin hoping to benefit from it. It will cause a addiction
in the end. As soon as you partake from it just like the partaking of
the forbidden fruit, it will cause your very death. Hope that you
repent before your death happens. Sin only begets sin. If a persons
offers you to sin out of necessity, still do not trust them. A sin is
still a sin. Plus sin is at the door of everyone who is upstanding,
or righteous. With mankind to be perfect one has to go through pain
stalking detail, and continuous effort. I am not saying this can not
be done. But you sure can not tell the difference between a truthful
and a lying person. That
is why you have to trust no one. Because you can not tell a lying
sack of horse manure from the dirt in a rose garden. You will be
dealing with a mystery and will never be able to put your guard down.
You will only trust people as far as you could be sure. You can not
never be sure. So, you take calculated risks with the people who you
trust. That means you always have to watch those you trust, by being
cautious with them. Rest assure that you could work with the enemy as
long as you have what they want, and vise verse. You just cant trust
people as a rule. In Proverbs chapter 16 verse 7, it states that when
God is pleased with a man, he causes even his enemies to at peace
with him. That means that you could work with even the enemy, as long
as you are righteous. But you can not trust his words. It will always
have to be verified. You could work with the enemy as long as he is
willing to work with you. He will be willing to work with you as long
as you has want he wants, and vice verse.
Verse
10 says: If sinners try to seduce you do not consent... verse 11
through 14 describes exactly why. There is only one way to protect
yourself from a sinner, and that is to watch everything and
everybody, including yourself and love ones.
Proverbs
Chapter 1 Verse 15
My son, do not follow them.
Keep your feet off their path,
Verse
15 gives a person the hope that they do not have to follow a sinner.
That's the first good news that one has in defence to being
confronted with a sinner. Simply that just because they try to entice
you. Just because the ask, beg, or will not seem to give up trying to
corrupt you, a person do no have to follow them. That the person has
other options in which the sinners is trying to deny the person. A
sinner will have you to believe that they are offering you the only
available option. That if you do not take their offer you will not
only be missing out, but that you might not survive in life without
their offer. So, all a person would have to do is negotiate others
offers or a better offer. Sinners
come in all areas in life. The deal my even have a good element to
it, but also contains some bad parts. King Solomon apparently has
faith in a person to shop around for a better deal. Even for a lowly
person to not have to follow a corrupt deal. It may be a corrupt
ruler is taking advantage of a lowly person limited resources, and is
offering a deal that is the lesser of two evils, instead of making
the deal more fair. That even lowly people have options, and could
possible come up with a strategy collectively to garner a better
deal. King Solomon also says that the person does not have to step in
the sinners path. In other words even a lowly common person has some
power, if they combine their efforts for a better deal or treatment.
These words are a refreshment to a inexperienced or young person.
Imagine a common person being taken advantage of, and then all of a
sudden King Solomon inspired by God, teaches the lowly person to be
wise, that they do not have to follow, nor even consider, or step in
to a offer that is not fair. Its amazing! Lowly people need to work
together for their own benefit against the enemy or sin. Voting is
one thing they could do together!
Proverbs
Chapter 1 Verse 16
For
their feet run to do evil; They hurry to shed blood.
I am going to be honest here. I
am writing this in a time were our President Mr. Donald J. Trump
stated some wise words that reflect verse 16, or reminds me of this
protection more currently. As a candidate for president Mr. Trump was
defending his legal business deals and actions of using the
bankruptcy law. The host of the debate tried to make Mr. Trump look
bad for his use of a legal business protection use of the bankruptcy
law. Mr. Trump abruptly stated that the lenders to his business are
not nice people including other names. I was amazed but it was a sure
sign that Mr. Trump did not need to suck up to the powers that be. He
is the power that be.
And like King Solomon telling
the lowly persons how to protect themselves, and the secret
personalities of a sinner, was compared to Mr. Trump calling the big
business lenders crooks and bad people. I mention this because it
will give the reader the impression that I intend to make. That is a
amazing act to wising up the lowly person. Its is for this reason why
Mr. Trump became president. The lowly people did not want to see
someone to become president that is bought and paid for by wall
street. That even if Mr. Trump works with the powers that be, that
Mr. Trump will speak his mind, unlike a seasoned politician who would
not want to ruffle up the rich donors. Make no mistake though, King
Solomon is not concerned about the powers that be either, for King
Solomon was on Gods side. King Solomon had the backing of God. Could
it be that Mr. Trump also have Gods backing? Up until Mr. Trump no
person called out powerful big business leaders like that. No one
dared called prominent news organization fake news. If this is not evidence that
Mr. Trump is for the lowly people, I do not know what a person for
the people look likes. He talks like a righteous man bold in telling
it as he sees it. King Solomon says their feet (the sinners feet)
runs to do evil, that they are in a hurry to shed blood. Trump huh!
Proverbs 1 Verse 17
It is surely in vain to spread
a net in full sight of a bird.
Well,
after a lowly person has the wisdom, and pays attention and seeks
more understanding, it will be in vain for anyone to trick the lowly
person, as he or she will now have the ability to obtain insight into
a matter like a wise and cautious bird with wings. I tell you that is
why I really think that the other powerful people looked down on King
Solomon, for teaching the lowly people wise saying in order for them
to be protected. In order for a person to be wise they only have to
open their mouths and talk. For a lowly person, that would look like
they are arrogant just for speaking up for themselves. Mr. Trump
speaks up for himself. He does not let people speak to him unfairly.
He is a fair person in my behalf.
He
was once quoted as saying, finally I get to say something when a
person publicly talked down on him. He was referring to a person he
knew would talk bad about him. That Mr. Trump now could strike back.
But even as Mr. Trump being way far from being lowly and common, the
people still seem to try to degrade him. To no avail Mr. Trump
capitalize on everything a organization tries to attack him with. I
only have to mention the media to make my case. Who is more powerful
then the media. Mr. Trump is too old and wise to suck up to any
person or organization. I talk about Mr. Trump because he reminds me
of King Solomon. Mr. Trump is essentially teaching the lowly people
to speak up to bullies. Mr. Trump was called a bully. I do not see
the evidence in that. He is a person that only strikes back at people
who talks down on him first. In light of Mr. Trump winning the
presidency, I think that elections will not be the same. People of
all shapes will run for president because of being inspired by Mr.
Trump. People
will not let powerful people talk down on them, without firing back.
It will surely be in vain to fool a person in full view of any a wise
people.
Proverbs
Chapter 1 Verse 18
That is why these lie in ambush
to shed blood; They lie hidden to take the lives
of others.
Pay
close attention here and you will see why you will only have to pay
attention. It is like unleashing the hidden powers of the brain. What
King Solomon is saying is that sin is hidden ready to take a persons
life. That sin lies in ambush with the intent to shed blood. The
moral of the story is that sin is not easily detectable to the casual
eye. That if your not cautious you will get harmed by sin, as it is
lies hidden from you in ambush, ready to shed your blood. To be wise
one would only have to pay attention and seek more insight into their
lives. Again, King Solomon is talking to a lowly people that have
become victims of sin, and did not know how to protect themselves
from sin.
Sin
in yourself hides in ambush ready to jump out and do you harm. This
is why you have to stay focused. Sin hides in your loved ones ready
to jump out as well. It is in every persons nature to dominate a
sinful person to their injury. Once a person knows that the sin is
purposely hidden from them in ambush, they are more likely to pay
attention and, or be cautious. In this manner the moral of the story
is that of sin, were ever it may be, that sin is a actual act or
thing that can be avoided. That sin is the thing to look out for not
respectful of any particular person, place, or thing. That is because
sin could come in any manner, persons, places, and things. That's the
impression that you get from wise King Solomon. A person that teaches
people wisdom is to always be praised. Solomon teaches that a person
only has to pay attention to their situations in their own lives.
People perpetuate depression, poverty, and slavery because they
continue to accept the, depressive, poverty, and slavery lifestyle,
not seeing the sin in it.
To
keep doing the same things over and over that harm you is my
definition of insanity. But the people that employs sin hides or
conceal it from a unwise person only. That is the reason it is in
vain to spread a net or sin on a wise person. It will be in full view
as the wise person will always be cautious, or pays close attention.
A wise person will always employ the right discipline in their lives
to protect themselves. They will know that no one else is going to do
this for them. King Solomon is telling a lowly people that
essentially have refused to be wise. The lowly people have refused to
be wise, because they were tricked into believing they could not be
wise. It was the classic scheme in slavery. Slaves were a lowly
people who were tricked, into believing they were less then human. So
it is with the person who is mentally depressed. Depressed people are
tricked into believing they have no choice but to be depressed. So it
is with the people who perpetuate poverty. They have been tricked
into believing they can not get out of poverty. The
important thing to take from being wise enough to see the sin, is
that sin could come from any person, place, or thing, including
yourself. That's is right. Sin could come from yourself. Stop
thinking you know were to find sin. The moral of the this proverb is
that, sin will be hidden in ambush with the attentions to shed blood.
Sin hides in peaceful and fun places. Because sin could be avoided
no matter who or what is the sin, it is the victim of sin very own
fault for not paying attention. King Solomon will later write that
the wise person avoids the sin, but the unwise will have to bare the
penalty of sin. While it is a known fact that people have been
deceived and tricked with sin, it is also a known fact the the
victims of sin have simply tricked themselves by being unwise.
Granted, sometimes being a victim of sin is not the victims fault.
That the sin was completely hidden from sight. No matter how wise,
any random person would get caught in a sin. Unforeseen occurrences
happen to us all, but this is no reason to be unwise by not being
cautious. What
King Solomon is saying is that even though sin is hidden in ambush,
that by expecting the unexpected and by being cautious, you could
avoid the sin. That a person could avoid perpetuating depression,
poverty, and slavery. Sometime when a person is trapped by sin, it
is when they let their guard down, and willingly stopped controlling
themselves. You must control yourself at all times or someone else
will.
Proverbs
Chapter 1 Verse 19
These are the ways of those
seeking dishonest profit, Which will take away the life of those who
obtain it.
Who is the dishonest one, that
is the question here. We know and believe that a dishonest person,
place, or thing will take the life of those who are dominated by it.
For this reason it is wise to assume that the dishonest are those
that sin, and a sinner is not only the person who entices another to
sin, but the person caught by a avoidable sin as well. I like to
blame myself for all my mistakes, unless the mistake was unavoidable
by me. That is, I could not avoid the mistake no matter what I do. It
is the same with sin. It could be that of my physical or mental
health.
As a Perfectionist of God I
blame myself for not being perfect, no matter the situation, because
according to Matthew 5:48 I am to be perfect like God. Period point
blank! That being said, my definition of being honest is being a
perfectionist no matter the situations. I will never have a excuse of
not being a perfectionist. To me being a perfectionist is always
trying to be perfect in everything and every way. I would have to
right my own way. I would always be willing to articulate my
righteous actions to myself, and or to my superiors. People today
often get away with not being honest, because they do not have to
explain themselves. Their faith is not questioned unless they are
facing dis-fellowship proceedings from a religious organization,
based on being accused of a unrighteous act. This is also how the
world works. That is not how a person should act that is pursuing
righteousness. A person often miss the opportunity to correct, judge,
and monitor their own faith this way.
This is the only self
discipline I know to stay honest, because staying honest requires
discipline. If there is no discipline there is no honest person. So,
ask yourself how do you stay honest. Hopefully you would have a
honest discipline that you use to stay honest. A person will have to
have honest thoughts and actions all the time. It is easy to tell who
is honest then by asking this simple question. The question is: How
do you stay honest, righteous, perfect, or wise. That's it. Then pay
close attention on how the answer is given. This is not always the
case with a good acting con artist, but this should at lest be a
required question for all religious tenets. For if you are not honest
you will be killing yourself. It is my belief that a depressed person
is not honest to him or herself. That simply means they are not doing
what they themselves think is the right thing for them to do.
Not what some one else thinks
they should do, unless they believe they should do it, because what
is right for me is not always right for someone else, and vice verse,
in many, but not all situations. But the main point I would like to
make on this subject is this, sometimes the victim of a dishonest
scheme is also dishonest, because in some cases, the victim should
have avoided the calamity if they were honest and wise. Also, that a
depressed person is never honest. They depressed because they are
guilty.
Proverbs Chapter 1 Verse 20-23
True wisdom
cries aloud in the street.
It keeps raising its voice in the public squares.
21. At the corner of
the busy streets it calls out. At the entrances of the city gates it
says: 22. “How long will
you inexperienced ones love inexperience? How long will you
ridiculers take pleasure in ridicule? And how long will you foolish
ones hate knowledge? 23 Respond
to my reproof. Then I will pour out my spirit for you; I will make my
words known to you.
Please pay attention to this
one very close, because it will all be about paying close attention.
First thing we learn is that in verse 20 it says that wisdom cries
aloud in the very street. It keeps raising its voice in the public
squares. At the entrances of the city gates is says... Wisdom cries
in the very street. Voices in the public squares. What does this
mean.
First thing we understand
through commonsense, is that in order to hear the wisdom in the
street, and in the public squares is that we need to pay attention.
King Solomon is describing the wisdom in paying attention and
seeking more insight or understanding. That wisdom is a easy thing to
the point that it is in the very streets, and the public squares.
Paying attention is the only skill that you need to have in order to
have wisdom. The lowly person already have the ability to obtain
wisdom. All a persons has to do is literally be focused as to pay
attention. Wisdom is the tool needed to dominate ones way. In order
to be perfect one has to dominate. In the Bible God instructed Adam
and Eve to cultivate and dominate the earth. In order for Adam and
Eve to cultivate and dominate the earth, they had to be focused as to
respond to the earth. Every person response to the earth in order to
dominate it, or to respond perfectly. To dominate is how a person
obtain perfection.
The world is against a person
obtaining perfection, that is why a person has to cultivate and
dominate the world. In order to dominate the world one has to pay
attention. Verse 20 says that wisdom cries in the street. In the
public squares it keeps raising its voice. Life is like a game of
chess. Your opponent is against you, just as the world is your
opponent. But if you pay attention the world will tell you how to
dominate it, just like your opponent in a game of chess. Remember the
forbidden fruit that Adam and Eve ate. It represented the world that
dominated them. Adam and Eve were to dominate the world. If only they
payed attention they would have dominated the world, as intended. The
world and everything in it will tell you just what you need to do in
order to dominate it, even as it will dominate you if you do not
understand. You must really pay attention and do the right thing, for
you can not deny you were not told. The very streets and public
squares is were the wisdom is. You will see from this there is no
excuse. King Solomon is definitely on
another level for teaching the lowly people wisdom. If some were wise
to understand I know they were amazed that wisdom was right in their
face, like I was.
Verse 22
states: “How long will you inexperienced ones love inexperience?
How long will you ridiculers take pleasure in ridicule? And how long
will you foolish ones hate knowledge?
This is a warning if you did
not know. You knew, because that's what it sounds like. But did you
know that wisdom was in paying attention. That wisdom is in life in
itself. That life in itself will tell you just how to dominate it,
and everything in it. Verse 22 says how long will you love
inexperience seems like a joke. No one loves inexperience. Yes, it
seems the joke is on the inexperienced person for not being wise.
Actually, being called a ridiculer is more fitting for a joke. Yes! A
inexperienced person who has the option to not be inexperienced, is
stupid. A ridiculer is more like a
joke. But be assured that I use the words joke, and stupid, to
motivate you to be wise, just like wise King Solomon uses the words
inexperience, and ridiculer to inspire you as well to obtain wisdom.
So, you are stupid for not seeing the wisdom I your face. Verse 22
also says that a persons hates knowledge. Hate is a powerful word.
But when a person acts so stupid to not be wise, when wisdom is
literally in their face, that must be a stupid person that hates
wisdom, now that is a joke. But a person usually will wise up when
you ridicule them this way, especially when they sense you are only
trying to motivate them to obtain wisdom. A normal person does not
hate knowledge. King Solomon is not saying that people are indeed not
normal, but rather tricked as if they hated wisdom. Today a wise
person is called smart or a genius. They make a lot of money, and it
seems they can not lose their momentum.
That is why Jesus Christ, on
his famous sermon on the mountain, says that, all these other things
will be added to you if you put righteousness first. What other
things. Well, if you must ask, it is riches and glory. Jesus Christ
says that all the nation is having anxiety over these things, but
there is literally one way to get them, and that is why you must be
wise. So, listen and pay attention. Be focused on your life and you
will dominate.
Verse 23 states: Respond to my
reproof. Then I will pour out my spirit for you; I will make my words
known to you.
If the wisdom is in the very
streets, and in the public squares, how do you actually do it, that's
the question. Verse 23 states for a person to respond to my reproof.
Which is literally the reproof of life. In order to be wise a person
literally has to respond to life, by listening and paying attention. The streets and the public
squares will poor out its spirit to you, if you are wise to focus
enough to pay attention. But just how do you do it in the midst of
all the distractions. If it was easy, why is everybody not doing it.
Well, as I explained many times before, people were tricked to
perpetuate depression and poverty. Its the truth. And now it is being
passed down by the parents to the child. This is because through
this trickery, the people became conditioned, and passed this
trickery of sin, depression, and poverty to their own children.
Poverty is depression and vice versa. So, it is not time to blame a
persons parents, but to learn how to change your life, and obtain
wisdom, because not everyone is going to accept this knowledge. Many
people are, or have been depressed, and this is the same thing as
perpetuating poverty. If you are depressed you will pass this
behavioral addiction to your loved ones. You have to be strong. All
people are not strong enough to stop the perpetuation of depression,
poverty, and sin.
But with this wisdom from King
Solomon in Proverbs, maybe you will step up to the plate and be
strong, instead of being weak and a victim. So, how do you respond to
the reproofs of life. A person must pay attention very closely,
while they are dominating. Once you paid enough attention and know
what to do. While you act, you must continue to pay attention, as
things could change right before your eyes. So, never stop paying
close attention, even while you make moves to dominate your
perfection. People will dominate unwise people to their injury by
nature. Two dominating people will come to a compromise. A weak
person has no compromise.
Proverbs Chapter 1 Verse 24-25
Because
I called out, but you kept refusing, I stretched out my hand, but no
one was paying attention, 25 You kept neglecting all my advice And
rejecting my reproof,
This
answers the question of how does a person not be able to obtain
wisdom. They had to refuse the wisdom even as it was smack dead in
their face. The question is why. Why did a person neglect all that
wisdom. Should such a person deserve the outcome of doing such a
unwise thing? Sure they do you would agree. But it is only natural
that a person refuse or get discouraged, from doing anything in which
a person believes that no matter what they do, they could fail. Is it
natural to reject any wisdom in the face of that discouraging
insight. Does everyone have a right to refuse and reject wisdom in
the face of the sin of discouragement?
No!
It is always wise to be wise in the face of sin.
Do
everyone get discouraged from doing the right things in life, not
just in pursuing righteousness, but in obtaining any desire? I took
the insight into the matter myself. I considered exactly why a person
refuse and reject the wisdom of life, especially when such wisdom is
in their face. A person does not have to know anything about God in
order to pursue perfection, in the midst of failure or sin. Some
people pursue perfection and believe it is their own ability or
willpower. They pursue their desires, perfection, or righteousness in
the midst of failure. How does this happen? How does a person
continue to pursue their desires, perfection, or righteousness in the
midst of failure or sin, and not do so under the inspiration of God.
The answer will help you understand why some people refuse and reject
the wisdom of their own life.
It
is because not every person believes in God, but if they feel the
fear of failure or sin and do it anyway, they are doing the exact
same things as a God fearing person. A person basically does the only
best thing that they can do. They do not give up! The Bible even
explains this when it does not give anyone a excuse, for not doing
what is right just because they did not know God. That a persons can
not have any excuse for not being wise, because the Bible says that
God has made His wisdom available to everyone, when God created
mankind. Romans 1:20. That means that when man is discouraged under
the face of the fear of failure and sin, he can still tap into his
own willpower to keep going, whether he calls the willpower Gods
wisdom or not. So, when a person refuse and reject the wisdom of his
or her own life, they are fools for doing so. They are fools for
hating this knowledge. When they refuse and reject knowledge they
deserve to pay the penalty of being unwise. They refused and rejected
the wisdom.
The
have neglected and rejected all the reproofs of life, when they
should have continued in the face of the fear of failure and sin.
This is the reason some people achieve their desires and some do not.
We all fear the failure of sin and death. We have wisdom to protect
us from the fear of failure, death and sin. Romans 1:20. A person
does not have to believe in the Bible or God, in order to obtain the
wisdom of life, in order to obtain righteousness or their desires.
However, a person will be punished for being unwise. They will be
punished for refusing, and rejecting the wisdom of life. But how can
a person not obtain the wisdom of life, even as this wisdom is in
their face when all a person has to do is pay attention, and to
focus. It is only natural for a person to feel discouraged, and
neglect, refuse and reject the wisdom of life in the midst of the
fear of failure and sin. But this fear of failure and sin is no
excuse, according to the Bible at Romans 1:20. The reason for this is
obvious, and is this: The feeling of the pursuit of perfection
outweighs the feeling of failure. That
is why a person is to be motivated off of the love and hate of the
world. Love outweighs hate. Perfection outweighs the sin of the
world. The sin of God of the world is good. God created the evil and
sin of the world for Gods purpose, that is what makes sin good.
Because God Created it. Compare Proverbs 16:4. Love sin to motivate
you to perfection and righteousness. So, people neglect, refuse, and
reject the wisdom of life to pursue their desires, perfection, or
righteousness because life is not fair. They feel no matter how wise
they are unforeseen, occurrences of death and sin can happen to us
all. But as we learned at Romans 1:20, mankind still do not have an
excuse for not being wise. Mankind has been tricked into believing to
reject wisdom in the midst of sin. But if the fear of sin stops a
person from pursuing perfection, a man will not be punished for not
being wise. He or she will not be a fool, stupid, or ridiculed for
hating knowledge and wisdom. As you will see that man will be
punished for rejecting the wisdom of the world.
The
wisdom of the world is the fear of sin and death, as God created sin
for a purpose (Proverbs 16:4). The fear of failure and sin is to
motivate a person to pursue the Perfection of God. And the perfection
of God just means pursuing perfection 100 percent. Mankind is tricked
into believing his life is unfair because of sin. That God made a
mistake in creating sin. If this was so, man will not be at fault for
being unwise.
Proverbs
Chapter 1 Verse 26-27
I also will laugh when disaster
strikes you; I will mock when what you dread comes, 27 When what you
dread comes like a storm, And your disaster arrives like a storm
wind, When distress and trouble come upon you
Its
bad enough that a man will be punished some may say. But man will be
laughed at when disaster strikes him for being unwise. When man is
feeling the pains of depression, and the distress of a depraved or
depressed mind he will be laughed at. For man has neglected, refused
and rejected the wisdom of this world to pursue perfection, in the
midst of the fear of failure and sin. Okay, laughter is the best
medicine the experts say. I would agree that if man could only laugh
at sin he would conquer his sin. I learned this the hard way from
being laughed at at school. But
it is no laughing matter if a person disaster is laughed at. Yes, but
not exactly. Well, not if man is a victim I suppose, and his disaster
is not his own fault you may agree. But picture a man slipping on a
ice and hurting himself, and he himself laugh at himself because he
was not watching were he is going. That he was not as careful as he
should. Now compare that to mankind laughing at his depression and
poverty because it makes no sense, regardless if it is his fault or
his enemies. As a rule mankind laughs at what is ridiculous.
Comedians do it all the time. They laugh at the ridiculous things in
life that happened currently, or in the past. So, in the light that
King Solomon will laugh at a person unwise acts, even when a person
is destroyed and their disaster strikes. When what they dread comes,
letting a person know that you will laugh at them for being unwise,
lets them also know that their unwise behavior is ridiculous. This
will serve to deter or motivate all those listening to avoid being
unwise in their future, not just the unwise person. But
when a person is suffering from a sin that is not his fault does a
person finds this funny also. Whether it is his fault or not it still
is ridiculous is it not? Laughing at something is evidence that a
thing makes no sense. It is not suppose to encourage a person to keep
doing the thing that makes no sense. So, when a person disaster
strikes, when what a mans dread come to him it is laughter as in
madness, or insanity is it not. But only if the person is wise to
know this. Certainly, as a kid they will have to learn this, or they
will be hurt all over again mentally. This causes depression in
itself. But this is because the person has not learned to laugh at
him or herself, when anything stupid or unwise happens to them, even
if they deserved it or not. So, I took the wisdom and said laughter
is madness and insanity to the unwise, but for a wise person it will
make them more wise so as to avoid sin. Many people will think that
King Solomon is punishing the unwise person further when his or her
disaster strikes. When what a persons dread comes. But
one would have to understand the reason King Solomon is speaking in
the first place. King Solomon reason is to impart wisdom to the lowly
one, and not to discourage him or her. Being teased is a blessing in
disguise also. Even I once thought that laughing at a person defects
or sin was cruel on a person. But I realized that was because no one
taught me to appreciate laughter. I say to myself, if only I was to
laugh at my defects and sin in life, I would have been made stronger
by them. I myself would not have lived with depression. No one taught
me the wisdom in laughter. To me their was no wisdom in laughter, but
only pain and distress. I took the wisdom and said not knowing the
art of laughter is depression and oppression, and the perpetuation of
poverty. That laughter could heal, but it also could be used to
distress a person. This to is from the enemy I said. I would urge
everyone to learn the gift of laughter. When you are able to laugh at
something it is understood, and one could apply the wisdom from it. That
a person should teach this to their children. Laughter is not a
punishment in these Proverbs. I found my mom suffered from being
teased like I did. She did not teach me how to protect myself from
being teased. I suffered from sever depression. She caused my
depression. This is perpetuation of depression.
Proverbs
Chapter 1 Verse 28-31.
Verse 28, At that time they
will keep calling me, but I will not answer; They will eagerly look
for me, but they will not find me, 29. Because they hated knowledge,
And they did not choose to fear God. 30. They refused my advice; They
disrespected all my reproof. 31. So they will bear the consequence of
their way,
And they will be glutted with their own counsel.
King
Solomon says that he will not answer a unwise person who refused his
advise and counsel. Who hated his knowledge, and disrespected his
reproof to fear God. Wise King Solomon is not just saying that he
would not answer such a person, but is saying that we should not
either. As soon as a person gets him or herself into trouble from
being unwise they will beg for help, from a person they think they
could trick into helping them. The
king says no. I am talking about a person who refused advice and
counsel, and will not repent. A person who continued to reject God.
Who should have known better, and have not repented, and do not truly
plan to. Such a person says King Solomon, the he would not answer to.
Do not get me wrong. I think he would help such a person out if they
truly repented, but he would make sure he is wise to know. Meaning
that he would pay close attention to their repent and request. He
would not help them if they could not convince him that they are
truly honest. He will not help them just because they asked for help,
given the fact that they just disrespected his knowledge. They would
have to prove to him that they truly repented. I say that because
King Solomon wise statements are for me to interpret. I think that
wise King Solomon is saying this as a king, who gives his wise
counsel to the lowly one, who disrespected his advice and then tries
to play him like a fool.
That
such a individual do not get to request from him, until they prove
that they truly repented. That such a individual needs to be punished
for disrespecting the fear of God. For King Solomon is saying not
only will he not answer them, but they will eagerly look for him and
they will not find him either. They would surely have to pursue
righteousness if they truly repent. Sometimes this is the only way to
treat a person, especially after they have rejected your counsel. If
they truly repent then God will forgive them, and show wise King
Solomon a sign to help. I do not condone treating a person like this
who did not understand a wise saying, especially after diligently
trying to understand it. I'm talking about a person who knowingly
disrespected the counsel. People who truly do not care and reject all
the advise given to them. People that are not willing to listen to
reason. I am not talking about a exploited person who rejects or
disrespects unwise counsel. There is a big difference in rejecting a
wise and a unwise counsel. People that do not fear the gift of God deserves to
be disrespected also in my belief. How else are you to stand for
righteousness. King Solomon says he will not even answer such a
person. This should move you to never forsake wise counsel yourself,
by paying close attention. Not everyone is wise though. Some people
are to make sure they are not a self righteous sinner themselves. But
some people are self righteous sinners that will oppress you, for not
letting them harass you further. In this manner you deserve to be
heard from. King Solomon is saying that he would not be found by a
person that disrespected his counsel, and we should not be found by
that person either. In other words he will be busy helping people
that are worthy of his counsel. So they will bear the consequence of
their way,
and they will be glutted with their own counsel. This
is what King Solomon will make sure he gives them. Their own counsel
and way. They disrespected his counsel and way. So he will give them
the full fruit of their way.
Like
I said, some people do not even want to do want is righteous. They
may think they do not deserve to be treated fairly. They may even be
guilty of evil acts themselves, and refuse wise advice because of
Gods curse on their life. Some people may simply reject this life and
want to die, and therefore suicidal. Some people need a different
type of help. Not everyone is the same.
Proverbs
Chapter 1 Verse 32
For the waywardness of the
inexperienced will kill them, And the complacency of fools will
destroy them.
I
believe that a depressed person is committing suicide. That his
depression is evidence that he or she has made the decision to commit
suicide, but he or she believes that they must suffer or be punished
for making this decision. That is why they do not kill themselves
immediately. Therefore depression is a slow death. But because it is
a slow death, a person could repent from this complacency or
depressive lifestyle before it destroys them. When a person rejects
wisdom and disrespects the fear of God, its a sign they have given up
on life, or is depressed. Depression is a choice from not doing what
is right. It
is a lifestyle choice of being lazy and not caring and avoiding the
consequences of life. It is being complacent or lazy. If there is
another way to be depressed I do not know. I am certainly not a
mental health professional. I am just interpreting the word
complacency, that will destroy a person. Depression that is will
destroy a person for not being righteous, according to King Solomon.
Complacency & Depression means the same. Complacency describes a
person that is too lazy to pursue righteousness in this regard.
Waywardness describes a behavior that is not normal. Something that
even the person acting this way is aware of, but does not care. That
the behavior of being wayward and complacent, will kill them and
destroy them. Since waywardness and complacency both describes the
mental illness depression, I will describe it here: Depression
is a state of low emotion or mood. A mood is something that a person
can self-regulate. A unwise person refuse to raise their own emotion
or mood. They
have neglected and rejected to do this. Perhaps they think they can
get some get right drugs or something. They may have been taught this
but they understand it is wrong. Either way they refuse to use their
own God given ability. They will seek help or sympathy from a person
that they have no respect for. King Solomon exposes such individual
in a way to inspire them to be wise themselves. This is the reason I
write this today. I must attempt to motivate people that I think is
tricked to not use their own self-control. Again, such individuals
has given up on this life, based on believing in the lie that their
enemy told. The next thing is to have a aversion to activity. This is
otherwise called lazy. But depression is a sickness or illness that
is a behavioral addiction. I know this because I suffered from
depression also do to parental neglect. But even as depression is a
illness and sickness it is a learned behavior. That also means that a
person has accepted this behavior. They have accepted this behavior
along with a not caring attitude. They
have accepted advice from unwise persons, mainly their parents. I am
not bitter towards my own parents. Many people are not strong to talk
about this, for fear of being accused of being bitter of their own
parents. The is just my truth. Meanwhile
the perpetuation of depression and poverty continues on, because no
one wants to offend a unwise people. Also, there are those that
profit off of the misery or others. They are the ones that will
accuse people like me for offending a lowly person for talking about
this. But people that are stuck on stupid or otherwise is hating
knowledge is calling out. Why do I think that. It is because they
despise their own depression and poverty. Their solution is that of a
afterlife they are not sure of. So, they end up committing suicide by
poverty and depression. But one thing is for sure. They are crying
out and those that profit cover their ears and eyes. Like King
Solomon, I can not live with this on my conscious. I must do what I
can. So, inspired by King Solomon's Bible book or Proverbs, I choose
to inspire them.
It
is Proverbs 21:13 that says: Whoever shuts his ears to the cry of the
lowly one, will also cry out and not be answered. I believe that
people that are lazy have learned this behavior by those closes to
them. You do not have to be a rocket scientists to conclude this. A
unwise person who is lazy and depressed speaks, but is ignored by
those that refuse to hear. Why would a normal person be lazy or
depressed? They must have been tricked. Their is no other answer. A
depressed person is not happy either. Why would a person be unhappy.
I have been depressed so I will answer this question for you. I was
unhappy because I did not pursue my own desires. I was tricked into
believing that I was unhappy because of a depressed condition,
poverty, and sin, but I was depressed because I perpetuated, my own
depressive condition, poverty, and sin. My solution was to admit
these things and repent. That did not happen with those closes to me
when I was most impressionable, as a young child.
Depression
does affect a person's thoughts, behavior, tendencies, feelings, and
and security. A depressed mood is never a natural behavior. Not even
when someone dies. Remember that sin is death. People that are
depressed or distressed over someones death, is dominated by the the
fear of death and sin. Let the dead bury the dead (Matt 8:22). The
fear of death and sin is to excite or motivate a person to pursue
righteousness. Not to become depressed and distress over sin and
death. Its true we have to mourn sin and death. But to mourn has to
be to hate sin and death. Not to be dominated by it. A person must
have constant hate of sin. This is what mourning is. It does not mean
to waste time burying the dead. Some people are tricked into paying
their last respects to a dead person. This trick started in slavery
to oppress the slaves into obeying their masters, the same with
lynching. The dead are conscious of nothing, which means you can not
show them respect. People were known to fall in deep depression after
a love one has died. This
is not normal under no circumstances. However, it should be a
celebration and time to remember what the dead person stood for, as
in remembering keep the faith in righteousness. Remember depression
is based on Romans 1:20 in the Holy Bible. Which is do to a sinful
or unwise lifestyle. The truth is when a person dies and the living
is depressed, it is because they treated them bad, and deeply
regrets.
Proverbs
Chapter 1 Verse 33.
But
the one listening to me will dwell in security.
And
be undisturbed by the dread of calamity.
What
a reassuring statement. King Solomon is saying that if you are wise
you will avoid depression, poverty, and sin. That is what people
dread. They work hard to avoid what they dread, or are going
painfully through it. Every person has to deal with this if they want
to be happy. King Solomon is talking to every persons desire. Every
person wants to avoid the pain of life. In life every person dread or
fear living a depressed, poverty, and sinful life. This is why King
Solomon is offering peace and security. Wisdom is the opening up of
the eyes seeing the sin and knowing how to avoid it.
Living
a good life. People are motivated to be happy, doing what is wrong or
right, legal or illegal in order to be happy. This will never change.
Never! They either believe they could obtain happiness or they do
not. This is seen if they are overly anxious or confidence. Jesus
Christ stated this fact when he stated that the whole word is anxious
for the thing needed to survive. The whole world is compelled to do
the things needed to survive. It may not look like it at times, for
wise people like to be calm under pressure. This is a show of
confidence. That even though they are anxious to survive, they
believe that they are on the right track to achieving the American
dream. Everybody wants the American dream or some version of it
depending on what country they live in. Every person deals with the
pains of life. The pains of life is want we all dread. Again, it is
depression, poverty, and sin. It is the life a depressed, poverty,
and sinful life will bring. King Solomon is saying that by being
wise, a person will obtain riches and glory. Just
like Jesus Christ did on his famous sermon on the mountain. That is
because both King Solomon and Jesus Christ knows that everyone is the
same in this matter. That people all want true peace and security. We
all want to believe that we could obtain the American dream. We all
want to look and be our best. Its in our nature. Everyone wants to be
rich. If you say you do not, you are only lying to yourself. For why
are you even considering to try to be wise. Being wise comes with
constant effort. Constant striving for righteousness. Jesus Christ
stated this as well, when he stated that the righteous must be hungry
and thirsty for righteousness, for theirs are the kingdom of God.
Which is riches and glory. Everyone is stressed in the business of
life. No one can live a carefree life. A carefree life does not
exist. Everyone has anxiety or worry about staying on top of their
business. This is true for everyone. Even as your business might be
to protect your business from others. The more you have, the more
attractive you are to others that will want what you have. The
more suspicious you are of people, places, and things. Its only
natural. So, the offer is real that wisdom brings. Everyone dreads or
fear being dominated by what they fear or dread. Its is not dreading
or fearing that is the problem. It is being dominated by it. King
Solomon says this in his last words. The conclusion of the matter if
you will. But for those listening to me and taking my advise to be
wise, by paying attention and acting accordingly, will be free from
being caught by what they fear. Everyone wants peace and security.
For even King Solomon has body guards securing him 24 hours a day to
protect him from what he fears. King Solomon is wise to offer true
peace and security to the people. He is saying be wise by paying
attention and acting accordingly. What is being wise. Being wise is
like being hungry and then eating. Being wise is like being thirsty
and then drinking. Being wise is fearing and protecting yourself by
being wise. We all have want it takes to be wise. Sometimes it means
that we join forces in working together in order to protect
ourselves. It
is not a question of whether you dread and fear. Your enemy wants you
to think that fearing is your problem. So they sell you a dream free
from fear. This will never happen. You can only be undisturbed by
fear by being wise only. Even in the afterlife God will always be,
and God uses fear to be God. Thank you everyone for your time. Next
is Proverbs chapter 2. This has been a spectacular journey. I hope
you understand what being a Perfectionist of God is all about. Its
interpreting everything, including the Bible book of Proverbs in a
inspiration way. A true perfectionist looks at everything including
life in a positive way. Even the sin of the world is a motivation to
do what is righteous. Everything is for a purpose to be perfect. God
purpose for mankind is for us to be a God. For that is why God
created mankind in his image and likeness. This is God's purpose. For
we know that God created everything for his purpose. Even the evil
one for the day(s) of evil. Who is the evil one. Well, it is the
Devil. God created the Devil. The Devil is not bad if God created the
Devil. The
Devil did not create him. The Devil motivates people to pursue
perfection. Some people believe the Devil created himself. If so,
this will be a insult to God ability to create what he wants. If this
is so a person will not put faith in God and pursue righteousness. Or
that doing Good outweighs the Bad. Good and Bad is a symbol the same
as God and the Devil. God symbolizes perfection or righteousness, and
everything associated with perfection and righteousness. The Devil
symbolizes evil and sin, and everything associated with what is evil
and sinful. It is a figment of the imagination. It is real only if
mankind thinks it is real. Meaning that if mankind wishes to pretend
there is no consequences to his actions he could. This will be unwise
to do, but mankind could pretend this way if he so chose. Want he
dreads and fear will dominate him for being unwise. So, it will be
logical to fear God and pursue perfection and righteousness, in order
for mankind to dominate his fears. His fears and likes are real, the
same way that God and the Devil is real. Its
real because mankind thinks that it is real. If it were not he would not
have to believe. A person will not have to learn anything. A person
becomes sinful in the same way a person perpetuates depression and
poverty. It is a learned behavior, the same as with wisdom. Good and
bad is real because it is logical. God and the Devil is real because
God and the Devil symbolizes good and bad. What about logic? Logic is
realistic results, or reality. This is why a person could be taught
to be righteous, with or without the Bible. Even the Bible says this
in Romans 1:20 when it offers no excuse for a unwise person, for not
being taught to be wise by people claiming to be from God. That any
person can be wise by simply paying attention and acting accordingly.
Its the same thing that King Solomon is saying when he says to fear
God. Which he means to fear imperfection and sin and pursue
perfection. My name is Pastor Maye, and this is The Perfectionist of
God Ministry. The End. Next is Proverbs Chapter 2. Proverbs
Proverbs
Chapter 2 Verse 1-5
Verse
1: My son. If you accept my saying and treasure up my commandments,
Verse 2: By making your ear attentive to wisdom and inclining your
heart to discernment; Verse 3: Moreover, if you call out for
understanding and raise your voice for discernment; Verse 4: If you
keep searching for it as for hidden silver, and you keep searching
for it as hidden treasure; 5: Then you will understand the fear of
God, and you will find the knowledge of God.
Verse
1. King Solomon is just restating what he said a lowly person needed
to do in order to obtain wisdom. He stated in chapter 1 that all a
lowly person needed to do to obtain wisdom was pay attention and seek
more understanding. In verse 2 King Solomon is just restating that
fact.
Maybe
some of the lowly people did not understand King Solomon at first. Or
maybe they were in disbelief that obtaining wisdom was a easy
process. Really! I myself used to think this way. Like think and grow
rich. Or, faking it till you make it. Or, if you could conceive it
you could achieve it. I could go on but I believe you get the
picture. A wise person was the only person that could get riches and
glory. Its like that today. I mean you would expect that to happen.
Using your talent to obtain riches and glory is also wise. Using
someone else talent to get riches and glory for yourself is also
wise. To be wise was magnificent. It is like being a really smart
person. Going to the prestigious schools. Getting the best education.
King Solomon is telling the lowly people the trick to acquire this
wisdom. The other rich folks had to be very unsettled by this. For
they made slaves of the lowly people. Being smart they could possible
rise and release themselves from slavery. But only if they believed.
Which
is why I believe King Solomon is restating what he previously stated.
In fact, King Solomon is emphasizing what he just said as if he knows
the lowly people are confused. For King Solomon would know the lowly
people are low because they have been tricked by the rich. The rich
purposely kept the lowly people from acquiring wisdom in order to
enslave them. You know as in banning the lowly from reading books or
learning anything. To just work, work, work. No time for anything
else. King Solomon says to accept his saying and treasure up his
commandments. First accept his saying. Like were the lowly people
were not going to believe him. You know as to how easy it is to
obtain wisdom. Then once they accepted his saying, then they were
told to treasure up his commandments. In other words King Solomon is
saying although he is rich and rich people do not tell you their
secrets, that the lowly people could believe him. That he is not
lying. That he is telling them the truth. That he truly cares about
them. That
not every king looks down on the lowly people. Which is what the
kings did. That was what they kings and rich people did. The ungodly
ones anyway. But King Solomon was a man of God and was different.
King Solomon was special. President Trump is just like King Solomon
in that way. I do not know if Mr. Trump is a Godly man. But I do know
he is wise. I do know he is really smart. Not because he says it. And
Mr. Trump did say it. He toots his own horn. He is suppose to. He is
a brand name. Mr. Trump is like King Solomon in that he is special.
Mr. Trump is different. He is a politician but he is not like them.
He is setting a new mark in the politicians game, and he is doing it
bodily. Not asking anyone for permission. Making enemies with anyone
in his way as if he is righteous. So, when I say special this is what
I mean. I would never know if he is a Godly man. But he sure acts
like one. I include Mr. Trump, rather President Trump in my book
because the readers could identify with a current ruler, instead of
wondering what I mean. You
know talking of a current ruler instead of always talking about the
past. You could lose people when you do that. In fact, most people
would believe that the wisdom in the Bible could be used right now
today. As that is a fact you could also interject current people,
places, and things. In fact King Solomon is telling people to
treasure up his commandments. Telling the lowly people to treasure up
his commandments is what the lowly people could identify with
currently. The lowly people are currently wishing to have something
to treasure in order to save their lives. So it is fittingly that
King Solomon use the word treasure in has proverbs. To treasure up
his commandment to pay attention and seek more understanding. To
treasure up means more then to accept. But in addition to accepting
his commandment to pay attention and seek more understanding, King
Solomon is saying protect and value his sayings as well. To treasure
something up means to accept and protect his commandments.
When
a person treasures up something it will be in their own special way.
Everyone could have a different method of treasuring something up. In
this manner a person would have to find their own way of remembering
this commandment. To pay attention and seek more understanding. Its
not like when you are young and told the wisdom in paying attention.
King Solomon was talking to grown folks who were already unwise.
Condition to be unwise by the rich rulers and leaders. You could tell
a kid to pay attention in order to get a sticker or high grade in
their school work, and reward them for doing so and believe me they
would remember it. They would not forget it because of the reward.
That is how you eliminate the perpetuation of poverty as well. As a
Community Activist this is what I tell parents to do their children.
They complain that it is hard these days to rear children the right
way. They say it is difficult to compete with their children
attention with their friends at school. They say the school work that
their children bring home is even confusing to them. I
say all you got to do is have them to pay attention to get good
grades and reward them for doing so. Train your children to love the
process of pay attention so as to dominate their school work. Paying
attention is the process for getting rewards that you will give them.
If the child pays attention they could spot if the process is wrong.
But only if they pay attention first. Paying attention is not taught
at schools at most if not all schools in the inner city. Paying
attention is not taught to the child by most parents, if not all the
parents in the inner city either. It is a fact that the inner city
perpetuates poverty and this is one of the big reasons why. As a
Community Activist working on ending the perpetuation of poverty, I
asked myself why. I did not believe that parents did not want their
kids to do well financially like the slave owners, even though it
sometime appeared the parents wanted their children to fail. I did
not think this was the case. Parents who perpetuated poverty by
teaching their children to perpetuate poverty unknowingly did this I
concluded. So,
I said finding the reason was crucial to reversing the perpetuation
of poverty. Not knowing the causes of poverty causes the perpetuation
of poverty, and children failing at school. So, finding out the cause
of one of the problems would solve both I concluded. Do you remember
the answers I was to find. I wanted to know why inner city parents or
the schools that their children attended, did not teach they child to
understand well to get good grades. Knowing this will solve the
problem to the perpetuation of poverty I concluded. I ponder and came
with the conclusion that if the children paid attention well they
would also see the potential bad. The bad or neglectful parenting of
their parents, as well as the bad and neglectful schools. Keeping the
children in the fog by not teaching them to pay attention, was
protecting the neglectful parents and schools from the trouble they
would be in if the child reported a neglect parent or school to the
authorities. This is one reasons why inner city schools do not have
critical reading classes. Having
a critical reading class, a child would have to pay close attention
to find errors. A child having that skill would be dangerous to a
neglectful parent and school. On second thought the slave master kept
the the lowly people in the fog for this reason also. Even though in
King Solomon days the authorities were the slave masters, the people
would not take such abuse and protest for change in leadership. So,
here we are King Solomon is teaching the lowly people how to be wise.
He is restating the process of paying attention and seeking more
understanding, by telling the lowly people to accept his saying and
treasure up his commandments. Next King Solomon tells the lowly
people that this is done by making their ears attentive to wisdom and
inclining their hearts to discernment. This basically says to pay
attention really close to the issues in there life and they will find
wisdom. A process that even the lowly person could do. No special
skill to learn. Just pay attention and then the lowly person would
find the wisdom in something.
It
is almost like King Solomon is pleading with the people. Not wanting
to see them destroy themselves by being unwise. When being wise did
not cost them in a sense anything. It was a skill they they could
teach themselves. Its not that easy as you may think, and King
Solomon knows that. A lowly person would have to relearn and or
renew their minds. This means they would have to strip off their old
personalities bare, and renew their whole minds over. So, King
Solomon seem to not explain this enough. To make their ear attentive
to the wisdom by simply paying attention really close. This is like
meditating while you are living your life normally. Always being
focused. To obtain wisdom is so easy that a unwise ruler on a lowly
people would have to trick the lowly people into being unwise. That a
parent and a school would not teach this like it does not matter. The
after effects are the lowly people are enslaved, and a child and his
parents would perpetuate depression and poverty. Discernment is
judging well as a result of paying attention. Verse
3: Verse 3 says; Moreover, if you call
out for understanding and raise your voice for discernment; Verse 4:
If you keep searching for it as for hidden silver, and you keep
searching for it as hidden treasure; Then you will understand the
fear of God, and you will find the knowledge of God. If you call out
and raise your voice for discernment. This is a action that one does
to find out something. Saying to call out and to raise your voice is
the only way to describe the action of trying to find something
hidden. To call out and rise your voice for something describes a
person striving for understanding. You are focusing on every detail
so as to figure out a mystery, puzzling saying, or riddle. You are in
a sense calling out and raising your voice to your own brain for
understanding. Hidden treasures are used again as a emphasis. It
speaks for itself. People were known to search tirelessly for a
treasure. King Solomon say search for knowledge as a treasure. When
you do you will understand the wisdom in fearing. That is is a gift
of God. That it is a gift of God. A
person must pay attention to themselves, another person, place, and
thing because they all will turn against him or her if he does not
control them. That's right! He will turn against himself just like
his enemy. The moment that he trust himself or another person is when
he is harmed. As long as he is in control of himself and his
relationships with other people places and things he is alright. He
must not trust others in the same way that he cannot trust himself. A
person will understand that if he or she does not have self-control
he or she will self-destruct. This is why a person must have
self-control. If a person could trust themselves they will not have
to have self-control. Many people have self-harmed themselves because
they simply took themselves for granted. Putting their guard down on
themselves caused them to self-destruct. Its that simple. If you
have to be on guard for yourself, you have to guard yourself against
other people. Family members and all. If you have to be on guard from
yourself, you have to simply be on guard from everything else.
Then
the lowly one would understand why God has invented fear. That is
that fear has a good purpose as it help a person to survive. There is
a lot of people that took having fear for granted. The simply did not
like to fear think that to fear was weak, or that fearing is the
reason why people fail. That fearing is the reason why people fail.
You know the fear of failure. People that perpetuate their depression
and poverty have the fear of failure. It true. But that is because
they do not understand the fear that God has given mankind to
survive. People that perpetuate their depression and poverty fear and
are depressed as a result. Once depressed they perpetuate their
depression and poverty. Understanding fear they will mankind up and
or be courageous. Instead of being oppressed by fear they will
express their might and be strong. Being mighty and strong in the
face of fear is understanding the fear of God. God is the wises. He
created the fear of evil for a purpose remember. King Solomon is
restating what he said previously. So wise up. Wise Up!
