Pro 15:5
A fool rejects his father's discipline,
But he who regards reproof is sensible.

Pro 17:7
Excellent speech is not fitting for a fool,
Much less are lying lips to a prince.

Pro 17:10
A rebuke goes deeper into one who has understanding
Than a hundred blows into a fool.

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

The Fool…
rejects his father’s discipline
has not excellent speech
refuses rebuke
full of folly

The Sensible
regards reproof
refuses lying lips
has understanding when rebuked

The bottom line?
Better to meet a momma bear look’n for her cubs…not a good situation…rather than dealing with a Fool and his folly.

The Fool is unteachable.
He rejection correction, reproof, rebuke.
He knows all.

The sensible is the opposite.

Be a sensible Believer of understanding.
