Discuss Proverbs 20 Page 3

John 2:10 is Jesus's first miracle of turning water to wine and it indicates people got drunk of this wine. So, this confirms it contained alcohol. Wine by definition is fermented grape juice containing alcohol and if it does not, then it is not wine, but grape juice. Both the word 'wine' is used and the word 'drunk' is used here.

strong wine is that has fermented long enough to get one drunk. i second Terry's opinion.

Proverbs 20:27 The spirit of man is the candle of the LORD, searching all the inward parts of the belly. King James Version KJV John 1:4 In him was life and the life was the light of men.

John 1:9 That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world. New King James Version Proverbs 20:27 The spirit of a man is the lamp of the LORD, Searching all the inner depths of his heart.

Proverbs 20:9

The Righteous man walks in his integrity. His children are blessed after him. PROVERBS 20:7. One night a father overheard his son pray: Dear God, make me the kind of man my daddy is. Later that night, the father prayed-- Dear God, make me the kind of man my son wants me to be:AMEN

Verse 1: There is a difference between pure wine - fruit juice and fermented - that which has been processed or allowed to get strong which then becomes strong drink We should know the difference and know that Jesus provided pure fruit of the vine. He was a pure and holy man.

Verse 12: Eyes that see and ears that hear are a gift from Jehovah God. We should thank him for these gifts and use them in a way that is pleasing to him.

I got from 2

"Watch ye, stand fast in the faith, quit you like men, be strong." Proverbs 20:13 "Love not sleep, lest thou come to poverty; open thine eyes, and thou shalt be satisfied with bread." How were the Israelites fed in the wilderness forty years? Yet with all the miracles and hearing God's voice from heaven, all they could say about the Bread from heaven, "What is it?" Wake up, and KEEP AWAKE!

Verse 22 shows that we need to wait on God to take care of the unjust things that we go through. He is fully aware of all the factors and he knows best how to deal with such things.

Proverbs 20:24 - I believe it is emphasizing the impossibility of human-being to understand his actions

Pro.20:1 - May God have mercy on souls ................

Vs. 1 I believe Carolyn hit it on the head. Good point about the first miracle Jesus performed. When in moderation, wine is an enjoyment. However, as with anything, our loving father warns us about over-indulging.

Verse 7 shows that a parent keeping integrity sets the best example for their kids to follow.

Understanding the word diverse, mixed or unblance weights and meassure.
Meaning short changing or cheating people who are unaware of the actual cost of something. God don't like that!
Ex: buyers something from the market and it weighs one amount, but when u get home u find something in it that added to the weigh and measure! Bummer

Its refreshing to no that if a person is truley of the spirit of god. And gossips on you . I will need to quickly separate from that false spirit

Verse 19
Beware of people that try to pry into your affairs with their charm and flattery. Being known to be a gossiper they will surely carry their knowledge of you to the ears of others.

To Yolanda Jones: Go to verse 23 and see if that helps. The LORD detest differing weights and dishonest scales.

Hi Yolanda; We could simply say, that we should judge right and equal in all things; but that would not put that verse completely in context of the whole proverb (5-12); which is about how God searches and knows us by our walking in His counsel, which He has put in our hearts; and our drawing out that understanding, unto purity and integrity in all our ways. Nothing else can commend us before Him!

I do not understand verse 10.

Verse 29 shows that young ones can use their strength and power to bring glory to God.

Hi, Proverbs 20:21 supports our. Sunday School lesson, The Gift of Faith. Just sharing--Love, Rachel
.

Father soften our hearts that we may hear, see and obey for Your glory and Your name's sake. Amen Psalms 106:10 And he saved them from the hand of him that hated them, and redeemed them from the hand of the enemy. Proverbs 20:22 Say not thou, I will recompense evil but wait on the LORD, and he shall save thee. 28:18 Whoso walketh uprightly shall be saved: but he that is perverse in his ways shall fall at once. Isaiah 33:22 For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king he will save us. 59:1 Behold, the LORD'S hand is not shortened, that it cannot save neither his ear heavy, that it cannot hear: Jeremiah 23:6 In his days Judah shall be saved, and Israel shall dwell safely: and this is his name whereby he shall be called, THE LORD OUR RIGHTEOUSNESS.

Amen

It means that as men we need to be humble and that it's not about us, let our spirit of God represent him because if we are the light then we must shine because as a servant of the Lord it's the closet people will see of him. Our spirit should show his work.

PROVERBS 2O:1 COMMENT 4 27 2015 1:15 AM Sarah, Here a references I have gather in my Bible about wine and strong drink. Prov.23:29-35 Isa. 5:11 28:7 56:10,12 Hos.4:11 Nah.1:10 Matt.24:49,50 Eph.5:18 A believer in Christ we Abstain from all appearance of evil. 1Thess.5:22. God bless, A-men.

PROVERBS 20:24 COMMENTS 4 26 2015 11:58 PM This verse is a various people of moral virtues, and their counter vices. JEREMIAH 10:23 ROMANS 8:26. Thank you Lord for teach and lead us unto your path and have a salvation for our soul. A-men.

I believe it to mean that the Lord uses our spirit to lead and guide.

We sons and daughters of Jacob 's house are being led by El Shaddai out of captivity Exodus.with His mighty hand in keeping His promise His Holy Spirit is has been pouring out to All His children. Judea. Acts 2:17 kjv And it shall come to pass in the last days, saith God, I will pour out of my Spirit upon all flesh: and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams: Proverbs 20:12 KJV 12 The hearing ear, and the seeing eye, the Lord hath made even both of them.
