Proverbs 13 (KJV)

1 A wise son heareth his father's instruction: but a scorner (hypocrite) heareth not rebuke (strong correction).

2 A man shall eat good by the fruit of his mouth: but the soul of the transgressors (sinners, wicked) shall eat violence.

3 He that keepeth his mouth keepeth his life: but he that openeth wide his lips shall have destruction.

4 The soul of the sluggard desireth, and hath nothing: but the soul of the diligent shall be made fat.

5 A righteous man hateth lying: but a wicked man is loathsome (sickening), and cometh to shame.
6 Righteousness keepeth him that is upright in the way: but wickedness overthroweth the sinner.

7 There is that maketh himself rich, yet hath nothing: there is that maketh himself poor, yet hath great riches.

8 The ransom (compensation) of a man's life are his riches: but the poor heareth not rebuke (strong correction).

9 The light of the righteous rejoiceth: but the lamp of the wicked shall be put out.

10 Only by pride cometh contention (heated disagreement): but with the well advised is wisdom.

11 Wealth gotten by vanity shall be diminished: but he that gathereth by labour shall increase.

12 Hope deferred (postponed) maketh the heart sick: but when the desire cometh, it is a tree of life.

13 Whoso despiseth the word shall be destroyed: but he that feareth the commandment shall be rewarded.

14 The law of the wise is a fountain of life, to depart from the snares of death.

15 Good understanding giveth favour: but the way of transgressors (violating God's laws) is hard.

16 Every prudent (well advised) man dealeth with knowledge: but a fool layeth (admits guilt) open his folly (lack of good sense).

17 A wicked messenger falleth into mischief (evil): but a faithful ambassador (minister) is health.

18 Poverty (Hardship) and shame shall be to him that refuseth instruction: but he that regardeth reproof (criticism) shall be honoured.

19 The desire accomplished is sweet to the soul: but it is abomination (curse) to fools to depart from evil.

20 He that walketh with wise men shall be wise: but a companion of fools shall be destroyed.

21 Evil pursueth sinners: but to the righteous good shall be repayed.

22 A good man leaveth an inheritance to his children's children: and the wealth of the sinner is laid up for the just.

23 Much food is in the tillage (profit) of the poor: but there is that is destroyed for want of judgment.

24 He that spareth his rod hateth his son: but he that loveth him chasteneth (discipline) him betimes (occasionally).

25 The righteous eateth to the satisfying of his soul: but the belly of the wicked shall want.

Job 9 (KJV)

5 Which removeth the mountains, and they know not: which overturneth them in his anger.
6 Which shaketh the earth out of her place, and the pillars thereof tremble.
7 Which commandeth the sun, and it riseth not; and sealeth up the stars.
8 Which alone spreadeth out the heavens, and treadeth upon the waves of the sea.

10 Which doeth great things past finding out; yea, and wonders without number.
11 Lo, he goeth by me, and I see him not: he passeth on also, but I perceive him not.

20 If I justify myself, mine own mouth shall condemn (punish) me: if I say, I am perfect, it shall also prove me perverse (wicked).
21 Though I were perfect, yet would I not know my soul: I would despise my life.

22 This is one thing, therefore I said it, He destroyeth the perfect and the wicked.

24 The earth is given into the hand of the wicked: he covereth the faces of the judges thereof; if not, where, and who is he?
25 Now my days are swifter than a post: they flee away, they see no good.
26 They are passed away as the swift ships: as the eagle that hasteth to the prey.
27 If I say, I will forget my complaint, I will leave off my heaviness, and comfort myself:
28 I am afraid of all my sorrows, I know that thou wilt not hold me innocent.
29 If I be wicked, why then labour I in vain?
30 If I wash myself with snow water, and make my hands never so clean;

32 For he is not a man, as I am, that I should answer him, and we should come together in judgment.

WARNING OR JUDGING!!! Part 1 of 3

WARNING, CORRECTING OR JUDGING!!!

Hebrews 4 (KJV) 

12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder (apart) of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

Sharing God's word will make the wicked and unrighteous feel judged.  Why because it  judges the the thoughts and intents of their heart.  It detects it quickly ~ Karmen


Proverbs 1 (KJV)

7 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge: but fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Those who want to continue in their wicked and unrighteous ways don't want to hear God's word.  ! Karmen




Colossians 1 (KJV)

28 Whom we preach, warning every man, and teaching every man in all wisdom; that we may present every man perfect in Christ Jesus.

Judging to warn and teach wisdom.  ~ Karmen

Romans 2 (KJV)

13 (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
14 For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves:
15 Which shew the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;)

Those living unrighteously or wickedly accuse each other and excuse each others of sins.  They do not want to repent.  Those who practice rigtheousness teach and warn all about living for God. ~ Karmen




Matthew 7 (KJV) 

1 Judge not, that ye be not judged.
2 For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again.
3 And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother's eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?
4 Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam is in thine own eye?
5 Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother's eye.

Repent before you point out someone else's same sin.  Also, don't get it misconstrued; correcting and warning is the righteous way to judge. ~ Karmen

Leviticus 19 (KJV) 

15 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment: thou shalt not respect (favor) the person of the poor, nor honor the person of the mighty: but in righteousness shalt thou judge thy neighbour.

When one practices righteousness they are objective.  They judge in honesty and holiness. ~ Karmen

35 Ye shall do no unrighteousness in judgment, in meteyard (yard, staff, rod), in weight, or in measure.
36 Just balances, just weights, a just ephah (an ancient Hebrew dry measure equivalent to a bushel), and a just hin (a Hebrew unit of liquid capacity equal to approximately 5.5 quarts), shall ye have: I am the Lord your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt.
37 Therefore shall ye observe all my statutes, and all my judgments, and do them: I am the Lord.

In obeying God's word you do not pick and choose which statutes to follow.  You submit to the Holy Spirit through practicing righteousness. ~ Karmen

Psalm 51 (KJV)

10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me.

11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me.

13 Then will I teach transgressors thy ways; and sinners shall be converted unto thee.

The goal is to teach others God's ways, so that they can live righteously for God. They are going to be offended naturally because again, the Bible judges the intentions of the mind and heart (both are of the flesh).  ~  Karmen



Proverbs 31 (KJV)

9 Open thy mouth, judge righteously, and plead the cause of the poor and needy.





1 Corinthians 2 (KJV)

12 Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.
13 Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

14 But the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
15 But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he may instruct him? but we have the mind of Christ.

A spiritual man (woman as well  :)    ) judges all things.  Worldly people's thoughts of them do not concern them.  ~  Karmen





Malachi 3 (KJV)

18 Then shall ye return, and discern between the righteous and the wicked, between him that serveth God and him that serveth him not.

It is our duty to discern between those who live for God and those who do not ~ Karmen

Hebrews 5 (KJV) 

12 For when for the time ye ought to be teachers, ye have need that one teach you again which be the first principles of the oracles (laws) of God; and are become such as have need of milk, and not of strong meat.
13 For every one that useth milk is unskilful in the word of righteousness: for he is a babe.
14 But strong meat belongeth to them that are of full age, even those who by reason of use have their senses exercised to discern both good and evil.

All of your senses (sight, smell, hearing, taste, and touch) are exercised to discern both the good and evil in every thing and every one due to the Holy Spirit that was given to them that are baptized into the Holy Spirit and Water.  For those who practice righteousness.  It is a default.

Also, comprehension, learning, awareness, understanding and thinking are very keen and sharp due to the Holy Spirit, training in righteousness and such.  ~  Karmen

Stop answering and responding to fools!!!

Proverbs 15 (KJV)

7 The lips of the wise disperse knowledge: but the heart of the foolish doeth not so.




Proverbs 17 (KJV)

28 Even a fool, when he holdeth his peace, is counted wise: and he that shutteth his lips is esteemed a man of understanding.




Proverbs 18 (KJV)

2 A fool hath no delight in understanding, but that his heart may discover itself.
