Proverbs 16:27 An ungodly man diggeth up evil: and in his lips there is as a burning fire.
28 A froward man soweth strife: and a whisperer separateth chief friends.
29 A violent man enticeth his neighbour, and leadeth him into the way that is not good.
30 He shutteth his eyes to devise froward things: moving his lips he bringeth evil to pass.
Certainly the men involved in the trial of Jesus Christ were ungodly men. They were trying to dig up evil against Him, but they could find none. Those men did not give up until they had what they wanted. There was a burning fire in them and that fire burns and burns until it consumes that which is being burned.
In the case of man, the fire burning in an ungodly man eventually consumes that man. It consumed Judas, and it consumed those chief priests and others.
A froward man is a perverse man. He is a man of twisted mind and heart. He looks to cause trouble. That is the nature of the leadership in unions. Their pay check is dependent upon keeping the workers dissatisfied. They are lazy and they are greedy. Most of the workers are greedy as well and they are willing to subject themselves to these froward men who they think are going to make life better for them.
Look at the auto industry in Ontario and see if life is better for them.
Mr. Carney lied about Mr. Trump. He made him seem as a ruthless untrustworthy man. He convinced enough suckers in Canada of his lies and thus he has ruined the relationship with the U.S. and is working out his globalist agenda. He is seeking ever closer ties with China and Europe. He is a fool because he has rejected God and he does not take into account that he will die one day. His money will stay behind and he will find himself naked before the King of kings. He will not be prepared for that meeting and will spend eternity in torment. Not a good trade he has made.
A whisperer is a gossip. He goes around telling lies about others. He is able to succeed in his evil plot and he breaks up what once was a good friendship. It is important not to believe everything you hear. Check the source and check the facts. If you have a good friend and someone is trying to destroy that friendship, be sure you have an open relationship with that friend. If that person is truly your friend, you should be able to talk to him about things that concern both of you.
Jesus is a Friend that sticks closer than a brother. The devil is always lying about Jesus and trying to interfere with His disciples. True disciples of Jesus Christ believe the Word of God and they build their lives on the Truth.
A violent man is an untrustworthy man. He will scheme and plot to try to lure his neighbour in to his evil ways. He has no good intentions. A wise neighbour confronts such a liar, and avoids him.
The problem modern psychology has taught is that you do not confront wrong. You tolerate and look for a way to accommodate wrong. That is what the secular churches do. They ignore God’s sure Word and they use twisted and worthless texts that support their evil ideas. Too many people are unsaved and thus trust in some smooth talker rather than the sure Word of God.
The froward man imagines evil. He closes his eyes and imagines his next evil move. Then he puts that imagination into words and works to bring evil to pass.
That is what our P.M. has been quite successful in. He concocted a lie for his advantage. He sold that lie to his closest “friends”. They were power hungry and gullible. They then took his unsubstantiated lies and spread them to a wider circle. Even the opposition parties are working from the premise of his lie. No one is calling it out as a lie.
The U.S. has exposed the lie, but the gullible Canadians do not believe them because after all “they are the enemy”. Thus the mess gets bigger and bigger. It will not end in a good place.
This same method is used in most churches. The KJV is an outdated and untrustworthy Bible. We should not trust it, so they say. The problem is that “they” have come up with over one hundred perversions of the Word of God and none of them agree with each other. The liars have convinced their gullible followers, that absolute truth is not available. They have convinced them that approximates are good enough. Thus thousands are holding on to lies and they have become quite intolerant of the few who are born again and believe that God has preserved His Word in a pure form. That pure form is in the KJV for the English speaking world.
Thousands are dying and going to a Christless eternity because they have never bothered to humble themselves and ask God to show them the Truth.
A sad place to be at, but it is the place most people are at today. Be sure you are not one of them. If you are truly born again, you will appreciate God’s hand of blessing upon His Word and you will reject the many perversions out there.
