Pro 6:1-5
Intro.
Two very problematic areas for people are covered in the Bible here. Woman in chapter 5, and friends in chapter 6. Nothing has ruined a friendship faster than finances.
In Bible times it would mean that you would be responsible for someone or something.
In the famine, when Israel sent his sons to Egypt for food, Judah says of Benjamin his brother:

Mark 8:27-38
Introduction
Last week we looked at two miracles, the miracle where the blind man was made to see, however he saw men walking as trees. We equated that to the fact that now, we don’t have perfect understanding. The second miracle was the second touch, and he was made to see clearly! Much like in heaven we will see clearly.

Proverbs 10
Intro.
Up until now, we have been in the introduction to the Book of Proverbs. The word “proverb” is defined as
1. A short sentence often repeated, expressing a well known truth or common fact, ascertained by experience or observation; a maxim of wisdom. (Webster’s American Dictionary 1828)
Each proverb stands on it’s own. Think of them as individual ponds of water, not a continuous flow of a river. We are going to try to take larger themes from each chapter to keep us moving through the book. We could spend the next 5 years going through every verse, but we have a whole Bible to study.

Intro.
Fool is a prominent word in Chapter 17. We do understand that the Proverbs are not a continuous flow of thoughts, but rather a collection of wise sayings. By selecting a prominent word, by no means am I covering the entirety of the chapter. I have only selected a few proverbs that appear in the same chapter, and teaching on them. There are many themes, and lessons that can be learned from chapter 17 that will not be touched tonight… so by all means, do take the time to read Proverbs 17, and see other things written in there.

Proverbs 19
As we continue to look at our influence in this world, it is important to remember and think about these things. These proverbs have many different ways to look at them. As I have categorized them, we are only looking at one category they fit into.
Prov. 19:10 ¶ Delight is not seemly for a fool; much less for a servant to have rule over princes.

Introduction
Prov. 20:11 ¶ Even a child is known by his doings, whether his work be pure, and whether it be right.
We are known by our actions…
Integrity is a very important characteristic that every christian should work on in their life. It is obtained by allowing God to have control of our life. We are born liars, manipulators, who try to get our way…
