Psalm, Chapter 15

Description of a Citizen of Zion.

A Psalm of David.

15 O Lord, who may [a]abide in Your tent?
Who may dwell on Your holy hill?

-          In Chapter 14 we looked at a description of worldly men

o   We looked at the folly of Men who say there is no God

-          In Chapter 15 we have a description of a Citizen of Zion

o   Zion is a reference to the mountain in Jerusalem where God will rule and reign from when He returns to the earth 

o   It is a picture of citizens of the New Jerusalem

§  A 1,500-mile cube made of precious jewels floating above Jerusalem

§  You might way it’s a picture of a citizen of heaven

§  It is the opposite of the picture we saw in chapter 14


 2 He who walks with integrity, and works righteousness,
 And speaks truth in his heart.

-          He walks with integrity if the first description

o   Integrity is a description of what a man or woman does when nobody is looking 

o   Yet they conduct themselves according to the way God would expect them too

-          And works of righteousness

o   This means righteousness at work

o   Doing things, working for God knowing that whatever you do, you do it as unto the Lord; therefore, you always try to do what is right and try to do it with the best of your ability

§  Does this describe your conduct today?

-          And speaks truth in his heart

o   To speak truth in your heart is to speak that which agrees with God’s word

o   And if it is from the heart it is what you believe at your very core

§  It’s not just a book
