Lessons to be learned from P22:
A good reputation should be desired above riches. To be
honorable is better that silver and gold.
As it has been said, “the ground is level at the cross”.
Rich, poor, tall, short, yellow, black, white, etc.—all are in need of a Savior
and all are welcomed by Him.
The prudent see danger approaching and avoid it. The simple
see it too, yet they continue to move forward and pay the price.
Lead your children in the ways of righteousness. See to it
that their hearts are trained in the way of the Lord. Don’t allow foolishness
to get a hold of them.
Debt is a form of slavery. Avoid it.
The unjust will eventually reap the tragic crop they’ve
sewn.
The generous person will be blessed.
Mockers bring nothing but trouble. Get rid of them and you
get rid of trouble.
Those who step on others to get ahead face the same fate as
those who try to gain favor from the rich by giving them gifts—poverty.
Trust in the Lord. Believe that following his wisdom is the
best way to live.
Taking advantage of the poor and needy is something the Lord
will not tolerate.
Bad company corrupts good morals (1 Cor. 15:33) so be
careful about keeping company with hot-tempered people. You may find yourself
in a world of hurt.
Don’t place yourself in the position to provide collateral
for the debt of another…or seek credit for yourself.
Don’t trample over the rights of others.
