WISDOM VS WORLD

Prov 3:1-2
My son, do not forget my teaching,
But let your heart keep my commandments;
2 For length of days and years of life And peace they will add to you. NASU** How do you live long? Follow the wisdom of God. Not just living long but a peaceful long life. Not forgetting His teachings seems to be a pretty easy thing to do….. yeah right! There is so much garbage in the world today that points us away from His teachings and wisdom that sometimes it’s a struggle just when you turn on your TV. His wisdom says, “don’t have sex before marriage.” And almost all the shows on TV encourage you to sleep around and test everyone out sexually before you marry them. His wisdom… “don’t murder.” And the TV is filled with murder…. If you’re a follower of wisdom then you’ll know exactly what I’m talking about. I’ll list some of what wisdom is saying and you can think of what the TV says in return. WISDOM SAYS: Don’t get drunk…. Don’t serve other gods…. Don’t commit adultery…. Don’t use Gods name in vain…. Keep your lips from filthy language…. Don’t lie…. Don’t cheat…. Don’t covet…. Be kind and compassionate…. Be a servant to all…. Give to the poor…. Attend church regularly…. Give 10 percent to the church…. Don’t divorce. SO….. how much wisdom do you find on TV? Very little if we were to be honest. Now here’s the kicker…. How much time do we spend watching TV (which has very little wisdom taught on it) compared to how much time we spend reading the Word of God?.......You tell me, it’s your life. AND…. We wonder why even Christians are not living long lives on the earth????
