“Better is the poor that walketh in his integrity, Than he that is perverse in his lips, and is a fool. Also, that the soul be without knowledge, it is not good; And he that hasteth with his feet sinneth. The foolishness of man perverteth his way: And his heart fretteth against the LORD.”
Proverbs 19:1-3 KJV
Wisdom from above says, “It’s better to be honest, even if it leads to poverty, than to live as a dishonest fool. The best way to live is with revelation-knowledge, for without it, you’ll grow impatient and run right into error. There are some people who ruin their own lives and then blame it all on God.” In this love of money-conscious world that we live in, dishonesty is the name of the game. Impatience to get rich quick leads to stupid mistakes and gets you into trouble whereas patience leads to abundant understanding. Such people refuse to believe the Gospel and the true riches that come by it. Jesus said this about integrity, “If you have not handled the riches of this world with integrity, why should you be trusted with the eternal treasures of the spiritual world?” There was one Simon the magician who wanted to buy salvation and the power of God, but Peter responded, “May your money be condemned to hell along with you because you believed you could buy God’s gift with money!” No one can trade Jesus’s Blood Sacrifice with money for it is faith in Christ that keeps us from eternal damnation. There is such never-ending agony and torment in the fires of hell and Jesus alone has the keys of death and hell. Believe in Christ Jesus so that you and your family are saved. Amen!
