WATCH YOUR STEP

Proverbs 14:15; Proverbs 22:3; 1 John 4:1

In Proverbs 14:15 and Proverbs 22:3 we are reading about simple people and prudent people.

OUR STEPS: We must watch them.

A.  SIMPLE PEOPLE: Proverbs 14:15 and Proverbs 22:3

This is what it says about simple people: It says about them that they believe everything. Simple people do not notice danger. They run straight into it and suffer.

B. PRUDENT PEOPLE Proverbs 14:15 and Proverbs 22:3

This is what it says about prudent people: It says about them that they are thinking about the steps they are taking. When prudent people see danger, they run for safety.

End:  1 John 4:1

We can ask ourselves now: Are we prudent or are we simple?

1 John 4:1 tells us about false prophets. We are told not to believe every spirit. We are told to test the spirits. The question is: Are they from God or are they not from God?
