Text: Proverbs14:34
Today’s sermon marks the start of our study of the second half of Proverbs. In chapters 1-9, we encountered a series of lengthier poems setting the stage and introducing the themes of the book. In chapters 10-31 we read the actual short statements of wisdom we refer to as proverbs. Today’s first message we venture into a discussion on the nature of nations and politics. Proverbs teaches us that righteousness in a nation will bring blessing, but sin that becomes normalized in a nation will eventually bring reproach.
