"Fools 5"

“Fools 5”

Blessing folk!

The Lord has warned us about the fool.
Especially to avoid being one.

Here is more…

Pro 17:12
Let a man meet a bear robbed of her cubs,
Rather than a fool in his folly.

Pro 17:16
Why is there a price in the hand of a fool to buy wisdom,
When he has no sense?

Pro 17:21
He who sires a fool does so to his sorrow,
And the father of a fool has no joy.

Pro 17:24
Wisdom is in the presence of the one who has understanding,
But the eyes of a fool are on the ends of the earth.


We learn more of the
character of a fool…

  • folly
  • tries to buy wisdom
  • no sense
  • his eyes are on the ends of the earth…the things of the earth…”the grass is greener on the other side of the earth” type of thing

We learn of the
impact of the fool…especially in the lives of others…
  • it is better to deal with an angry momma bear robbed of her cubs (that is bad) than with a fool and his folly…think on that…
  • one who sires a fool…the father…has sorrow and no joy due to the fool

Pursue holiness and the mind/understanding of the Lord.
Reject the way of the fool.
Reject the folly of the world.
