Righteousness, justice and equity. (Pro.1:3)
A. Proverb was written 2750 years ago.
Proverb was written by Kingdom Solomon.
Proverb was written so that people may receive instruction in wise dealing,
for a life that is right, just and fair.
B. Sound wisdom was lay up for the upright people. (Pro.2:7, 9)
1. Yes, the scripture says, God lay up sound wisdom for the upright!
2. An upright person is one who lives a life that is right, just and fair.
3. To do right, just and fair one must have courage!
4. This is why every new Christian in a hurry and diligently add to his faith,
courage, knowledge, self-control, patience, godliness and love.
5. Pro. 2:7 says--> He lay up sound wisdom for the upright; sound wisdom is a shield to them that walk in integrity!
6. Pro. 2:9 says, Then you shall understand right, just and fair.
7. This must be why 2 Peter 1:5-6 says-->
A new Christian must add diligently and immediately add to his faith, courage, knowledge, self-control, patience, godliness and love in increasing measure!
All these are require for any one who wish to live a life that is right, just and fair!
This is the kind of people can hope to enter the eternal kingdom of God.
C. Do what is right and just is more acceptable to God!
1. Solomon says, to do what is right and just is more acceptable to the Lord than sacrifice. 21:3)
2. 2000 years ago Jesus said this--> Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! You give a tenth of your spices…. But you have neglected the more important matters of the law--> justice, mercy and faithfulness. You should have practiced the latter, without neglecting the former!
3. It is clear worshiping God alone will not take a person into the kingdom of God. It takes an upright person to enter the kingdom of God! An upright person is one who practice worshiping God the Bible way and do what is right, just and fair!
D. Ps.17:2-5
1. Pro.14:12 says, There is a way that seems right to a man, but in the end it leads to death. These words were repeated in Pro. 16:25! In reality, we know each person has his or her right things to do!
2. From God let my vindication come. Let God’s eyes see the right! 17:2
3. God has tried my heart and visited me by night (in darkness)!(There is nothing evil within me!) (17:3)
4. As for the deeds of men—- by the word of your lips I have kept myself from the way of the violent! (17:4)
5. My steps have held fast to your paths. My feet have not slipped.(17:5)
E. Jer.22:3, 15-16
1. This is what the Lord says: Do what is right and just. Rescue from the hand of his oppressor the one who has been robbed! Do no wrong or violence to the alien, the fatherless or the widow, and do not shed innocent blood in this place. (Jer.22:3)
2. Does it make you a king to have more and more cedar?
Did not your father have food and drink?
He did what was right and just, so all went well with him. He defended the cause of the poor and needy, and so all went well. Is that not what it means to know me?" declares the LORD. (Jer.22:15-16)
F. The way to be and to live as an upright person! (Ac. 2:36-38, 2 Pet. 1:5-11)
1. Have the faith that can make you a Christian! (Acts 2:36-38)
2. Immediately and diligently add to your faith, courage, knowledge, self-control, patience, godliness, love!
3. These qualities must in increasing measure!
Then the door into the eternal kingdom is wide open for you!
May the Lord bless you and keep you! (August 23, 2007) .
