Episode Synopsis

Welcome to Wisdom Today with Bill Kelley. Today we will be going over Proverb 26. I will then key in on verses 24-26 - These verses talk about how destructive telling lies can be in your life. The Bible tells us that lying is one of the things that God absolutely hates. We should do all we can to avoid lying. Before beginning today's lesson I will review the three points I brought up on Monday's (Episode #756) podcast. I will then go over verses 19-22 of the 2nd Chapter of the Book of Ephesians. By the end of today's lesson there are three things I ask that you consider:1. Jesus Christ is the true cornerstone.2. But earnestly desire the best gifts, And yet I show you a more excellent way.3. We are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation.Scripture verses referenced on today's lesson:Proverb 26:24-26; Ephesians 2:19-22; Matthew 16:18; 1 Corinthians 12:27-31; Psalm 118.22; 1 Peter 2:1-9Call to Action - Are you aware of the consequences of telling lies? Do you lie from time to time? Do you feel it is OK to tell a lie (under the right circumstances)? Friends, if you answered yes to that question, I invite you to pray to God like this - Father God, I confess that I have sinned in the past. I ask that you forgive me of those lies. I repent, and purpose in my heart to stop telling lies. Help me in this pursuit, I pray, In Jesus' name. Amen.
