WARNING IN THE WORLD

Reading: Proverbs 13:1-14
NATS: Teachings of the wise is a fountain of life, so people avoid the snares of death (Proverbs 13:14)

Geese often come to the Mill Pool in England, where RBC Regional Director, Howard Liverance, live. Looking at it he wrote, "It is a beautiful place ... that is where ducks, geese, and other water birds playing with witty." However, there is a danger in that quiet place. Across one corner of the pond there is a power grid. A number of swans have died from stepping on while walking to the pool.
Howard spoke to many people about this issue and ultimately the power company put up red flags over the network. Now the geese can see the danger and avoid it. Since the installation of red flags, none of the dead swans.

God has already provided a "red flags" to protect ourselves. The Book of Proverbs is a book that contains numerous warnings about evil things and encourages us to seek wisdom. In Proverbs 13:1-14, we will be able to find some "red flags". "Red flag" that includes among others:
o do not ignore discipline and rebuke (paragraph 1);
o keep your mouth (paragraph 3);
o be careful in the pursuit of treasure (verse 7);
o shun dishonesty (verse 11), and
o Do not underestimate the word of God (verse 13).

The Word of God "is the source of life, so that [we] avoid the snares of death" (verse 14) - AMC

WARNING-WARNING PURPOSE GOD

IS TO PROTECT, NOT TO PUNISH OUR
