Welcome to Wisdom Today with Bill Kelley. Today we will be going over Proverb 22. I will then key in on verse 4. This verse goes hand in hand with the book of Micah - Chapter #6: verse 8. I will then go over over the gospel of Mathew Chapter #7: verses 1-12. This chapter is the third chapter of what we refer to as the Beattitudes. This chapter tells us that we are not to judge people. Verse 6 cautions us that we are not to share our faith and our relationship with Jesus with people who we know are not open to it. We are to be careful who we share our faith with. Verses 7-12 tells us that if we want to have a closer relationship with Jesus and have a closer relationship with Him, we certainly can, but we will have to be purposeful to achieve that end. Verse 12 refers to what we commonly call "The Golden Rule" - (to do unto others as we would have them do unto us.). This verse is in reference to the book of Deuteronomy Chapter 19: verse 18 which says not to take vengeance nor bear any grudge against the children of your people, but you shall love your neighbor as yourself.
