7 More Things From Proverbs 1

Wise men speak because they have something to say;

Fools because they have to say something.”
Plato

Here is another little snippet from the book of Proverbs: 

Seven Results of Disobedience (Law) in Proverbs 1:26-28

1. Calamity: I will laugh at your calamity (Proverbs 1:26)
2. Fear: I will mock when your terror comes (Proverbs 1:26)
3. Storm: or whirlwind: When your terror comes like a storm, And…a whirlwind (Proverbs 1:27)
4. Distress: When distress and anguish come upon you. (Proverbs 1:27)
5. Destruction: when your destruction comes like a whirlwind (Proverbs 1:27)
6. Anguish: when anguish comes upon you (Proverbs 1:27)
7. No Answer: then they will call, and I will not answer (Proverbs 1:28)

...and here is another list of 7 attributes of wisdom found in James. James parallels so many issues from the book of Proverbs:

James 3:17

But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable,

Gentle, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits

Without partiality and without hypocrisy (NKJV)

But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure.

It is also peace loving, gentle at all times,
and willing to yield to others.

It is full of mercy and good deeds. It shows no partiality

and is always sincere. (NLT)

“Knowing others is intelligence; knowing yourself is true wisdom.

Mastering others is strength; mastering yourself is true power.”
