Good morning, everyone.
It's a wonderful Wednesday, and we are delighted to have you here with us today to study the Word of God.
We're going to finish Chapter 10, the book of Proverbs today, verses 27 through 32.
And then tomorrow we begin chapter 11.
Let's pray and invite the Holy Spirit.
Almighty God, our dear Heavenly Father, Father, we thank you for your presence and our presence in our
lives your presence is the greatest treasure we have the sweetness the peace of the calmness the joy
father we delight in your presence and so we we request your presence in this bible study
teach us your word and illuminate us to understand your ways in the name of jesus christ our lord
and Savior. Amen. Amen. Praise the Lord. Welcome, everyone, from wherever you are across the planet
today. We're so excited to have you here. We've got a couple of countries that we haven't seen
much activity from lately. Australia and Indonesia are here with us today, and of course our
friends in Russia, the UK, Ireland, and Philippines, Japan, Malaysia, Brazil, and of course
all points in between the U.S. and Canada.
Welcome to Morning Man, our international global Bible study where we explore the Word of God
and we are currently exploring the book of Proverbs.
We are in chapter 10.
We're finishing chapter 10 today.
So if you have your Bibles and you should have your Bibles every time we're studying the Bible,
we're going to read together here.
And I encourage you to read out loud if you can.
And that's a great way to get the Word of God imprinted on your mind and helps you to remember it.
and helps the Lord to speak to you.
Sometimes reading the word out loud allows God to just say something to you
that you might not have had just reading to yourself.
So verse 27 is where we're picking up in chapter 10 today.
Reading to the end of the chapter, verse 27,
The fear of the Lord prolongeth the days,
but the years of the wicked shall be shortened.
The hope of the righteous shall be gladness,
but the expectation of the wicked shall perish.
The way of the Lord is strength to the upright,
but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.
The righteous shall never, never be removed,
but the wicked shall not inhabit the earth.
The mouth of the just bringeth forth wisdom,
but the forward tongue shall be cut out.
The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable,
but the mouth of the wicked speaketh forwardness.
God bless the reading of his word today, Rick.
Amen.
Verse 27,
the fear of the Lord prolongeth days
but the years of the wicked
shall be shortened
that's one of those verses
that should wake you up in the morning
if you desire to live long
the fear of the Lord
prolongs days
to fear the Lord
is to live in reverence
in all
in obedience towards him
and the fear of the Lord
then lead you to make wise choices in life
so that you are walking
in his ways
and obedience
yields
practical benefits in this life.
God watches over those who fear him,
protecting them, sustaining them.
Now, prolonged days, Doc, I think you can use this phrase,
prolonged days, not only to refer to life in this, you know,
you know in this world on the planet but to eternal life prolong days right how long is prolonged
forever yes the fear of the lord prolongeth days to me it means there's no cutoff
there's no ending to those who fear the lord your days
continue. Isn't that what
you desire?
Eternal life
that will
eternal life
is prolonged days
there's no cutoff
there's no ending
but in this
world in this physical life
it's a promise
that you will live a long life
what comes in my mind doctor is one of the commandments the fifth commandment has a promise
honor thy father and thy mother that thy days may be long
and i always have to ask the question is the opposite true
dishonor thy father and mother and thy days will not belong
people need to think about this this is the one commandment
that comes with a promise yes
those who honor their father and their mother
their days shall be long right and thus wouldn't they
promise work the other direction too if they don't honor their father and mother would their days
be shortened that's what i'm i'm saying okay no matter how your father and mother act just go ahead and honor them
okay just go ahead and honor them um why because you're obeying the commandment
yes just get over their behavior their attitudes whatever it is that's irritating you just
get over it and honor them if you if you desire to live long yeah if you don't you don't
if you don't just are to live long that's not a motivator to you but it is the first
the commandment with a promise and that promises life and
by extension if you not only honor your father but honor your heavenly father wouldn't that
imply that you would receive eternal life that's a good point doc that's a very good point
so prolonged days in both senses temporal physical and eternal honor your heavenly father
and you'll have prolonged days how long is prolonged in eternity there's no ending
but the years of the wicked shall be shortened anything difficult to understand the fear of
god lengthens the days you live on earth the years of the wicked shall be shortened
it is very easy to understand
because wickedness
wickedness leads to ruin it
you see it so often
people who are living
in more alive suddenly are cut off
right
and you know also doc
a guilty conscience
gnaws away at a person's
peace of mind and they're
health. Yes.
Bitterness,
unforgiveness,
meanness,
it destroys people's
health.
You see it on their faces, in their
bodies.
And they continue
in it out of stubbornness, out of spite.
even though it's destroying them.
You know, there's a verse in Ecclesiastes,
and you're the one that actually showed this to me several years ago
when we were kind of working through Ecclesiastes.
And it's Ecclesiastes 717.
It says, be not over much wicked, neither be thou foolish.
Why shouldest thou die before thy time?
and you know i often hear that one scripture quoted as appointed under man wants to die and then
the judgment that we have an appointment well the thing is that we can keep in mind is we can
change our appointment yes we can change our appointment yeah there may be an appointment
but we can change our appointment because the scripture clearly teaches if we honor god he will
prolong our days. If we choose to dishonor God and live in foolishness, we would die before our time.
We can determine our appointment to some degree. I agree, Doug. I believe sinful people often
change their appointed time to die. They die early. Yes. The years are shortened, wasted, unfruitful.
over and over Jesus gave us parables about fruitless trees what happens to them they're cut down and burned
so one way you keep you stay in the game is to produce fruit amen be fruity if you've got to
spiritually grunt and do whatever you do
do you got to squeeze out some kind of fruit if you plan to stay in the game because the great
farmer is looking for fruit and a life that has no fruit has no reason to remain on the
planet and you can have a mixture of fruit
so ultimately the wicked face eternal loss the greatest shortening is to be cut off from god forever
people people make mistakes people
fall into sin
but they recover, they repent, and they get out of it.
But those who stay in it
for years and years and years and years and years,
they're risking that one day they just disappear.
And so keep that in mind.
God is not going to remove you
because you had a momentary weakness.
in your life but when there's prolonged rebellion uh you are at risk amen you're at risk
let's see what um albert barnes born 1798 the fear of the lord leads to health peace and longevity
while wickedness
wastes life
and brings premature destruction.
Verse 28,
the hope of the righteous shall be gladness,
but the expectation of the wicked shall perish.
The righteous live in hope
that's grounded in God's promises.
What's the basis of our hope?
The promises in the Word of God.
what are we studying every day we're studying the word of god to discover his promises i mean isn't that
what we're all looking for we're looking for his promises what does the lord say with my name i guarantee this to you
I'm reading the Bible for that's right I want the guaranteed promises I yes and there are
guaranteed promises that will lead to life and guaranteed promises that will lead to death
that's right and I I desire to know all of them and to understand them so the reason
the hope of the righteous shall be gladness
is because their hope is grounded in the promises of God.
And that leads to gladness.
Their hope produces gladness in this temporal life and in eternity.
Even when our present-day life is marked by trials and tribulations and valleys and hard times,
it's our expectation of God's faithfulness
that gives us joy to get through the difficult time
why where does that joy come from
it's the joy of the Lord but your joy is
I know the word of God and I know what his promises are
and I'm going to get through this difficult time
and so we live in hope
the hope of the righteous shall be gladness it's not wishful thinking it's a confident assurance
rooted in god's covenant with his people you come to the place of believing that god is who he says he is
and he does what he says he does amen end of discussion i don't need to know anything else
I know who he is and I know that he keeps his promises.
And when you have that
assurance, you have
gladness in your heart.
Our hope includes deliverance in this life,
vindication,
eternal life
our joy
flows from
the certainty
the guarantee
that God will perform
he will fulfill
everything
he promised
it is
it's an unshakable
joy
because our glad
Doesn't come from circumstances, but it comes from the rock of God's word.
That word never changes.
And that because of that, we have gladness.
But the expectation of the wicked shall perish.
Amen.
So the first part says the hope of the righteous.
second part says the expectation of the wicked the righteous hope and the wicked expect
notice doc they didn't say the hope of the wicked that's right the expectation they don't have
any hope they have expectations the wicked live with expectations but their expectations but they're
are built on false foundations, which is pleasure, fun, power, wealth, whatever it is that they expect will bring them gladness.
But they're temporary, they're fragile, and they collapse in the day of trouble.
The 27th chapter of Job, verse 8, said,
For what is the hope of the hypocrite,
though he hath gained, when God take us away his soul?
What gain is there?
You can gain the whole world,
but if your soul is taken away, what have you gained?
So the wicked,
expect, listen to this, the wicked expect blessings without obedience.
They expect heaven without holiness.
They expect peace without repentance.
A lot of people like that today.
They expect to be blessed without obedience.
they expect to spend eternity with God without holiness and it doesn't work that way
so you have this contrast to the righteous right the righteous is the righteous people's
hope matures into eternal joy, but the wicked person's hope shrivels in eternal loss.
I'll look at some of the quotes.
John Gill, born 1697, the righteous hope for eternal glory, and their hope shall not be
disappointed but fulfilled with joy.
The wicked expect happiness, but all their expectation
perishes in death.
Adam Clark, born 1762,
the righteous have solid joy
in the object of their hope,
but the wicked's hope is founded
on lies and therefore perishes
with them.
Verse 29.
The way of the Lord
is strength to the upright,
but destruction shall be
to the workers of iniquity.
Amen.
the way of the Lord that that refers to God's will his coveted path of righteousness
the way of the Lord to the upright walking in God's way in God's way brings strength
security confidence and the way of the Lord obedience is not it's not
a burden instead it's a fortress amen it protects it guides it sustains the faithful
obedience empowers life it avoids sin snares it preserves health peace stability living in god's
ways gives courage to endure trials for the upright no they are walking in his favor
the righteous finding god's path in his ways they find safety and energy vitality is his way
the way of the lord is their strong tower of defense
But the destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.
Now, here's a contrast.
The same way of the Lord, the same way,
the same way of the Lord that strengthens the righteous,
destroys the wicked.
God's way is a curse to those who rebel against it.
yes what is life to one person is death to another person
sinful people experience god's ways as judgment
workers of iniquity
but destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity
Workers of Iniquity, that's speaking of persistence in sin, it is their occupation, their labor, their drive, their pleasure.
Remember what I said a few minutes ago, we're not talking about people that in weakness fall into sin and then repent and the Lord restores them.
we're talking about people who persistently sin over decades of their lives
it's their occupation they won't give up their sin and so for them
God's God's order his ways feels it feels like a crushing weight on them and
his justice ensures their downfall right it's a burden to them it's a burden it's a burden to obey
but it's a delight to those who do obey isn't that paradoxical to the ones who refuse to obey they
they say god's way is a burden but the ones who actually do obey but the ones who actually do obey
say no it's a delight there's no burden it's a delight so the same way of the lord that gives
peace to the righteous brings dread to the wicked the destruction what's it's
But destruction shall be to the workers of iniquity.
The destruction is eternal death.
You can't be destroyed more than that.
Eternal separation from God.
Whose way they despised.
So the way of the Lord is double-edged.
It fortifies the upright with strength and safety,
but it destroys the wicked who oppose it.
To the righteous who walk in God's ways,
they find refuge and safety,
but to those who resist God's ways,
they embrace their own ruin.
And it's the same way of the Lord.
let's look at what
the old commentator said
Matthew Henry born 1662
the way of the Lord is strength to the upright
walking in it they find safety and comfort
but the way of the Lord is destruction to the wicket
it condemns them and will be their ruin
Charles Bridges born 1794
for the same sun that softens wax, hardens clay.
The same way of the Lord strengthens the upright and destroys the ungodly.
Alexander McLaren, the way of Jehovah is strength, not weakness, to those who love it, but to the rebel, the same way becomes ruin.
For resistance to eternal order is destruction.
verse 30
the righteous shall never be removed
but the wicked
shall not inhabit the earth
boy
that should wake up
and that includes the new earth
so the righteous
shall never be removed
first thing that comes in my mind is psalm one three
where the righteous are compared to trees planted by rivers of water
they got deep roots they're fruitful they're enduring
psalm one three says he meaning the righteous man or woman
will be like a tree planted by the streams of water that produces its fruit
in its season whose leaf also does not wither whatever he does shall prosper see that's a promise
amen when you are righteous you are planted by a a spiritual river and it waters you nourishes you
And in a time of drought and famine, your leaves are still green.
And whatever you do, prospers.
Don't fear financial crashes.
Social media is full of predictions about financial crashes.
And sure, there's going to be financial crashes.
Yes.
There has been ever since there's been,
money yes yeah there's going to sooner or later there's going to be a crash that's a you can bet on
that and i can tell you right now if if the cycle you know holds true as it has for
about 500 years going back in great britain's history there's going to be a real estate crash in
2026 right because real estate crashes every 18 years that's not you know I'm not talking about
on January 1st 2026 it might be April might be June might be September but somewhere in
2026 real estate's going to crash right I'm not going to flip out about it
there are going to be a lot of people who are going to lose a lot of money
but it's not going to be me i'm not going to be worried about it my leaves will not turn brown
as long as i stay planted by the river of life i'll get through that crash next year if the stock
market goes down i'm not going to dry up and wither and blow away how do i know that because god's
word promises that I will not I will not wither whose leaf also does not wither
that produces its fruit in its season its leaf does not wither whatever he does
shall prosper first is the righteous shall never be removed
That means stability, permanence, security, in what?
God's covenant promises.
You shall never be removed from God's covenant.
Do I believe in eternal security?
Yes.
When you are living, when you are living,
according to the covenant yes if you are living according to the covenant you have eternal
security amen if you're living contrary to the covenant you're at risk so though the righteous
may face trials and persecution
they cannot be
uprooted from the kingdom
if somebody
if I'm taken away
and physically
tormented and tortured
and execute it
I'm still not removed from the kingdom
I have
the promise of God's word
never be removed
my physical body may die
but my soul
God has my soul
our faith
is anchored in
the rock
and the rock is Jesus Christ
it is not shifting sand
storms may rage in this world
but the
we will stand
we will stand firm
and
as the world
becomes more unstable
we all need to remind
ourselves
of the stability
of God's promise
of his covenant
amen
you know for a few minutes
I saw
some of the headlines
and I saw some video today
early this morning
of the military parade
in China.
China's
on the move. China's on the march.
I mean, you don't have to be too smart
to figure out what they're going to do.
Anytime you see
tens of thousands of
soldiers goose
stepping down the street
that means there's a big war coming.
And they were goose stepping down
the street today in Beijing that's right they sure were they're getting ready for a big war
i'm not going to be moved i don't know what's going to happen i'm not afraid i'm not afraid
the lord will protect me psalm 55 verse 22 cast your burden on the lord and he will sustain you
he will never allow the righteous to be moved
listen to what he just said
the Lord will never allow the righteous to be moved
John 10
verse 28 29 Jesus said
I give eternal life to them
they will never perish
and no one will snatch them out of my hand
praise god my father who has given them to me is greater than all no one is able to snatch them out of
my father's hand those are from the words of jesus christ those words came from his mouth
he said no one will snatch you out of my hand no one is able to snatch you out of my hand no one is able to
snatch you out of my father's hand.
It's a wonderful promise.
So the righteous shall never
be removed.
But the wicked
shall not inherit the earth.
The wicked may flourish
for a season, but they have no
lasting place. They have
no permanence.
their dwelling is temporary their prosperity is fragile we talked yesterday about chaff they are like chaff
that the wind drives away without root without permanence psalm one verses four and five the wicked are not so
but are like the chaff which the wind drives away therefore the wicked shall not stand in the judgment
nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous.
So the wicked build their empires,
they build their mansions,
they build their businesses,
their political careers, everything.
They build it on sand.
And one storm can remove them completely.
What do we learn from this?
Build your life on Christ.
Amen.
The sure foundation.
You will never be uprooted.
Even when you make mistakes, even when you are weak,
I'm going to assure you when you are weak, when you have fallen,
Christ will not leave you.
He will stay.
with you and
he will
he will tend to you
until you're strong to be on your feet
again
what I've learned to be on your feet again.
What I've learned in my life
when I have come to know
Christ
at the deepest level
is not when i'm strong but when i am my weakest i don't understand it i don't understand why does he
meet us in our weakness but he does and none of us want to be none of us desire to be in those
stages of life but the lord uses those times that we are when we are at a
our weakest point in life he uses those times to to teach us about his strength and then when we come
out of our weakness we have this new revelation about his strength praise god all right let's look at the
commentators john gill born 1697 the righteous shall never be removed
neither out of the heart of God, nor out of the covenant of His grace.
But the wicked shall not inhabit the earth, at least not long, nor with comfort.
Adam Clark, born 1762, the righteous man is never forgotten, nor his name blotted out from under heaven.
But the wicked has no permanent dwelling.
He is driven from place to place, and at last from earth.
earth to hell oh wow that was adam park the wicked is driven from place to place and the last
movement is from earth to hell wow he didn't hold back on that comment did he no i knew you were
going to like that one dog i chose that one for you Albert barnes born 1798 the proverb declares
the stability of the righteous and the instability of the wicked but one is fixed as a tree by the waters
the other like chaff rootless and homeless and Alexander McLaren born 1826 righteousness is
permanence wickedness is transience the righteous shall stand when the world falls the wicked vanish
like shadows verse 31 the mouth of the just brings forth wisdom but the forward tongue shall be
cut out this is a very vivid picture and once again we're faced with the reality that
words have consequences the words do we speak have consequences but they can bring life and
they can bring death, not just in our own personal lives, but in the lives of those around
us as well.
And such a power in the tongue, and James talked about it, in the new tongue, it's a fire.
It's a world of iniquity.
Who can tame it?
Only God can tame it.
That's right.
So the mouth of the righteous brings forth wisdom.
back to the tree analogy, all right? A healthy tree bears good fruit. A sick tree bears
unhealthy fruit, bitter fruit, poisonous, toxic fruit. Wisdom just flows naturally from the
mouth of a righteous person. The righteous speech guides instructs.
edifies others. It nourishes those who hear it. It's fruitful. It's not barren. It's constructive, not destructive. The fruit of wisdom brings counsel, guidance, correction, comfort, encouragement. Why? Because the words are grounded in God's words. But the forward tongue shall be.
cut out what does froward mean what did we learn in other lessons
froward is not yeah i think most people would just say oh that's somebody that cusses a lot
that's not what it means froward means crooked perverse deceitful
you can be all three of those and never say a dirty word
there are a lot of rowward mouth people who never say a curse word but every word they say is curse word yes
because it's filled with doubt unbelieve criticism hatred bitterness slander their mouths are crooked perverse deceitful their tongues
They use their tongues to corrupt, to twist, to oppose God's truth.
They misquote God's word.
You'll even have them misquoting God's word.
Talk very early this morning.
I came across the name of a Bible school.
It was from Missouri, too.
You got to watch this guys in Missouri.
I know.
Go to Bible school.
I was looking at their statement of doctrine
and they had a
they had a scripture but no scripture verse
you know it didn't say where they got the verse
the Lord you know the Bible says and has an end quote
you're like I've never read that
where did they get it
so I just copied it and put it in
in search engine
And it turned out it was a compilation of multiple scriptures.
Yeah.
That was a lot.
Well, excuse me.
You can't do that.
See, as far as I'm concerned, they're twisting the Word of God.
They're twisting it.
They're making the Word of God say something it doesn't say.
Yeah.
So even religious people do it.
But the words of the wicked bring division, strife, emotional pain, division.
They just poison.
Their words are full of poison.
You don't get sweet orange juice.
You get toxic poison from their fruit.
It says that they're tongue.
shall be cut out the only image I can have doc is somebody sticking their hand and
somebody's mouth with a knife and violently cutting off their tongue how else do you
remove a tongue it's like a surgeon removing a part of
of the body that is filled with with poison and toxicity that's poisoning the entire body
and the surgeon says i've got to cut this out of this person's going to die or are a farmer
an orchardist removing a rotten branch from a tree
people who actually their lives would
improve if
they
surgically removed their tongue
no doubt
now I'm serious
there are people whose lives would improve
if their tongues were surgically removed
they do
they're so
boneheaded
stubborn they don't even
realize that their foul
tongue
that they use to curse others
is bringing curses upon themselves.
They're so boneheaded, stubborn.
They don't get it
that they're cursing themselves.
But usually these are people
that have a sense of entitlement.
They are entitled to use their tongues
against other people.
They think that.
They think that they are entitled.
why because they think that they're better than the other people and therefore they have a right
to curse them with their tongues you got to get inside their head and see the way they think
you know what they're twisted and a froward mouth means crooked twisted perverse deceitful
well their brains are twisted and their hearts are twisted
so the wicked you know they have a platform to speak for time but then there comes a day when
their voices are silenced and they're just gone they're gone but on judgment day they're going to
give an account for every word or that one doc had
not not every action but every word yes every word every word every idle word what is an idle word
a useless word it's not not a lazy word it's not a lazy word it's a useless word it's useless word
useless to who?
useless to God.
He had no use for it.
He can't bless it.
It's an idle word.
It's a useless word.
He's not going to bless slander,
gossip, criticism,
condemnation, name-calling.
He won't bless it.
Adam Clark,
the just man speaks what is true,
wise, and useful.
the wicked man's tongue is a curse
and shall be cut off
he shall lose
both his credit and his influence
Charles Bridges
1794
the mouth of the just brings forth
wisdom as naturally as the
tree of life
brings forth fruit
excuse me let me read that again
as naturally as the tree
brings forth fruit
but the froward tongue
so busy in perverse speech
shall be silenced in shame and everlasting destruction.
Alexander McLaren, the righteous man's lips bear fruit.
The wicked man's tongue is a barren branch to be cut away.
Wisdom is eternal.
Perverse words perish.
And then our last verse for chapter 10.
The lips of the righteous know what is acceptable.
but the mouth of the wicked speaketh frowardness.
The righteous speak with discernment.
They understand what is fitting to say,
what is pleasing, what is appropriate before God.
Have you ever been prompted by the Holy Spirit?
You're getting ready to say something,
and the Holy Spirit says, no, don't say that.
and it may be there's nothing wrong
nothing untruthable with what you're going to say
but the timing is not right
yes
and the holy spirit will say
don't speak that right now
they're not ready to receive it
sometimes you want to speak truth to someone
and the Lord says no they reject my truth don't even give it to them right see those people
they have a history of rejecting truth and they there comes a time when God says to
Christians don't even give them any more truth they're not entitled to any more truth
of the righteous know what is acceptable acceptable means words that edify heal uplift bless us the lips of the
righteous know when to speak and when to be silent their tongues are under control it's very difficult to keep
under control when you are in the presence of an uncontrolled tongue.
When you have other people who have uncontrolled tongues, it's very difficult to keep your
tongue under control.
But work at it.
Ask the Holy Spirit to help you.
Because that other person is trying to get you to sin with your lips.
And when you start thinking of it that way,
the person that has no control over their mouth says whatever they want to say hurts anybody they want to hurt sets everything on fire well i'm only speaking the truth rick yeah but they're provoking you to sin with your mouth like they are by rebuking them and you're going to say something that later you wish you didn't say but they're provoking you to do it they're
daring you to do it the greatest response you can have is no response we simply say
i disagree and then walk away sometimes not even saying that you just walk away you are entitled to
your opinion i have mine we don't agree and just be quiet
walk away if they're calling you names so that's your opinion of me but i have a different
opinion of me i like me and god likes me and he says i am made in his image and likeness
therefore i cannot allow you to call me those names you don't fight don't have to argue just
just calmly say
I don't accept that anymore
yeah don't operate from their lives
but operate from God's truth
that's right
and you're not going to convince them
you can't reason with them
you cannot reason with these people
they're beyond reason
they've reached a state
where they're completely unreasonable
and nobody can talk
nobody can reach them
they are so far gone they don't even know it themselves why because of their pride their pride
is deceiving them and they don't realize how far gone they are so don't argue with them don't
try to change you're not going to change them god can't change them you're not going to change
them the only way though they can be changes god radically intervenes in their life i mean
radically intervenes and the emphasis on God doing that that you that's right so the words of the
righteous are always seasoned with grace I said that last week you know just imagine you've got a
like a salt shaker as your words come out of your mouth
they need to be just sprinkle grace on them your words should have grace on them and don't engage
people with perverse twisted perverted perverted lips you have to get out of their presence
or eventually they will bring you down to their level amen that's what they're trying to do
they're trying to bring you down to their low level
but the mouth of the wicket speak it frowardness okay so again what are we talking about
with frowardness crooked perverse twist it no concern for truth no no concern for
appropriateness i'll say what i want to say i speak the truth but let it fall where it falls
okay you know they have that attitude they're reckless
you know the bull in the china shop
they're just upsetting everything and they love it
they love it
again it goes back to their pride
they have no filter no governor on their mouth
their mouth is just running wide open
they say whatever they want to say
they don't care who they hurt in fact
they like hurting people
hurting people is what drives them
they suck the energy out of those people
they hurt them they
they wound them and then
they pull the energy out of their soul
they are
vampires on the soul
grabbing energy out of people
don't don't participate with them
I just
put distance between you
and them
because
a person that talks like that
is outside of God's grace
I don't know what to say
they've
put themselves in a place where
they have rejected
the way of the Lord
that's what it comes down to
they've rejected the way of the Lord
