Under Gods Command

Proverbs 28:05 Evil men do not understand justice, but those who seek the LORD understand it fully. 

Because justice is part of God’s character, a person who follows God treats others justly.  The beginning of justice is concern for what is happening to others.  A Christian cannot be indifferent to human suffering because God isn’t.  And we certainly must not contribute to human suffering through selfish business practices or unfair government policies.  Be sure you are more concerned for justice than merely your own interests.  You can’t claim to follow God and ignore your neighbor.


Under Gods Command

Proverbs 4:13-17

Hold on to instruction; do not let it go; guard it well, for it is your life. Do not set foot on the path of the wicked, or walk in the way of evil men. Avoid it, do not travel on it, turn from it and go on your way. For they cannot sleep till they do evil; they are robbed of slumber till they make someone fall. They eat the bread of wickedness and drink the wine of violence.

Even friends can make you fall. It is difficult for people to accept the fact that friends and acquaintances might be luring them to do wrong. Young people who want to be accepted would never want to confront or criticize a friend for wrong plans or actions. Many other people can’t even see how their friend’s actions could lead to trouble. While we should be accepting of others, we need a healthy skepticism about human behavior. When you feel yourself being heavily influenced, proceed with caution. Don’t let your friends cause you to fall into sin.
