Godless Destroy With Their Mouth

07 Jul

Proverbs 11:9 – 9 With his mouth the godless destroys his neighbor,
but through knowledge the righteous escape.

Godless people destroy the people around them by leading them astray.  That’s happening around us in all forms today.  When I was younger I was allowed to watch mostly anything I wanted.  I was influenced by the fun party movies growing up.  They made it look attractive, fun, and exciting.  Most party movies don’t show the terrible consequences that follow shortly after.  They don’t show the dead end.

That’s the way it is with all sin that is being peddled by those who don’t know God or are adverse to Him.  God is very serious though when it comes to those that spew evil from their lips and dissuade others from coming to Him.

Matthew 18:5-7 – 5 “And whoever welcomes a little child like this in my name welcomes me. 6 But if anyone causes one of these little ones who believe in me to sin, it would be better for him to have a large millstone hung around his neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.

7 “Woe to the world because of the things that cause people to sin! Such things must come, but woe to the man through whom they come!

Knowledge is what will help the righteous escape.  That knowledge is that of the Lord.  Your Bible, God’s Word, is where that knowledge is available.  It’s called the Living Word for a reason.  It isn’t just that it is alive for us today, but because it will allow others to live if we share it and can get them to read it.

With their mouth the godless destroy.  There are words of life and their are words of death.  Choose to study the Word everyday that you can and choose life.
