Anger
#
Proverbs 19:19
Introduction
We need to be careful that we do not paint anger or wrath as a bad
thing. Anger is an emotion that is felt.
Eph. 4:26 Be ye angry, and sin not: let not the sun go down upon your
wrath: 27 Neither give place to the devil.
God is holy, and without sin. Yet, he has wrath, and anger.
I. Anger without Discretion (Pro 19:19)

Prov. 19:19 ¶ A man of great wrath shall suffer punishment: for if
thou deliver him, yet thou must do it again.

The Millennial Reign & Judgement
#
Revelation 20:1-3
Introduction
The Millennial reign of Jesus Christ, is a literal 1000 year reign of
Jesus on the Earth! The Old Testament foretells of this, and this is
literally what the Jews expected when Jesus came the first time. They
didn't understand his coming as a lowly Lamb of God to take away the
sins of the World.

Deceit and Deception
#
Proverbs 20:1, 16, 19, 17
Introduction
Sometimes we can be very innocent, and naive in life, and not realize
there are people that are not trustworthy as well as things that cannot
be trusted. The Bible helps us to know what to look out for. It will
benefit us, so as to be wise in this world.
The Bible, and especially the book of Proverbs serves as a great
practical book, to help us be wise in a world of much foolishness.

Authority
#
Proverbs 20:2
Introduction
We live in a society that knows very little of authority. Respect for
authority is lost. Children in schools are taught by example, they do
not have to respect their teacher. Teachers are stripped of the
authority they once had. We see this in a dis-respect, and even scorning
of law and order in our country. Many times people excuse rebellion to
authority based on abuse of authority. This does take place, and even in
Paul’s day, it was it was a problem, and Paul in the NT still wrote,

Integrity
#
Proverbs 20:7 – The just man walketh in his integrity: his children are
blessed after him.
Introduction
Integrity is something that is very important. Integrity is not
something easily viewed. Integrity is that personal desire to do what is
right when no one is around to notice, and no one will ever find out. It
is closely related to character.
I. Integrity in Conduct (Proverbs 20:7)

A. Integrity in Action – Job, David, Samuel, Daniel, Joseph

1. Integrity does not come naturally
#
Prov. 22:15 ¶ Foolishness is bound in the heart of a child; but the
rod of correction shall drive it far from him.

Final Judgement Day
#
Revelation 20:11-15
Introduction
This passage is a very serious passage. It deals with the end of time as we know it, it deals with man standing before God to give account of his deeds. It is important that we understand this will absolutely take place, and every single day, it draws closer.

Integrity
#
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…

Counsel
#
Proverbs 20:15
Introduction
We live in the age of information. Smart phones have made us dumber. The
sharpening of technology has dulled the intellectual ability to reason
and remember.
The older, wiser generation, may not understand this, but the younger
generation will understand, you don’t have one phone number memorized.
We don’t need to understand things, we can just look it up. Intellectual
understanding has been devalued due to the in-exhaustible resources at
the very tip of our fingers with a smart phone & internet.

Miscellaneous Thoughts
#
Proverbs 20:12, 20, 30
Introduction
Tonight is more of a shotgun message, it will hit all over the place
instead of just hitting one theme. These are the last three verses that
I was not able to fit into a category in this chapter. From Proverbs 10
on, we have many sayings that are not necessarily themed, or go
together. For sake of thought and continuity, I have been going through
each chapter, and connecting the dots between the thoughts that are
covered to give us a uniform way to look at them, and cover topics.

Everything Made New
#
Revelation 21:1-8
Introduction
This entire Chapter is dedicated everything being made new! There is a
great re-assurance, in knowing what is to come, and that while the
heaven and earth is wiped out, that doesn't include humanity. This is
where eternity is really described for us. The world is temporal, and
will pass away.
