There is no shame in learning from the mistakes and wisdom of others.

I've noticed this in the selfie-obsessed world of social media, where serial selfie posters never tire of themselves, yet their audience often dreads another post.
Proverbs 25:17 KJV Withdraw thy foot from thy neighbour's house; lest he be weary of thee, and so hate thee.
Men will always fail us. God never will.
Proverbs 25:19 KJV Confidence in an unfaithful man in time of trouble is like a broken tooth, and a foot out of joint.
The worst of enemies are often won through kindness. Once, I offered a prayer for a man who cursed me with profanity. Afterwards, he stated that he wished I had just told him to go to hell, and that he had a newfound respect for me.
Proverbs 25:21 KJV If thine enemy be hungry, give him bread to eat; and if he be thirsty, give him water to drink:

The only “works” that save and keep us are the works of God. If the works of God are not manifested in your “faith,” you do not have the gift of faith from God that does all of the work throughout our salvation. If our works could not save us, what makes you think that our works can keep us?
Philippians 1:6 KJV Being confident of this very thing, that he which hath begun a good work in you will perform it until the day of Jesus Christ:
The saints are all who are saved by grace that has been confirmed by the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Philippians 1:7 KJV Even as it is meet for me to think this of you all, because I have you in my heart; inasmuch as both in my bonds, and in the defence and confirmation of the gospel, ye all are partakers of my grace.
Beware of the Political Christ who is not preached in good will. Regardless, I do not care who shouts, “Christ is King!” Because, Christ is still King.
Philippians 1:15 KJV Some indeed preach Christ even of envy and strife; and some also of good will:

Philippians 1:21 KJV For to me to live is Christ, and to die is gain.
Perhaps the “health and wealth” preachers ought to read the book of Philippians. Perhaps they just need to read the Bible, period.
Philippians 1:29 KJV For unto you it is given in the behalf of Christ, not only to believe on him, but also to suffer for his sake;
I've found joy in returning lost property to its owner, while shame comes from the thought of keeping it.
Deuteronomy 22:1 KJV Thou shalt not see thy brother's ox or his sheep go astray, and hide thyself from them: thou shalt in any case bring them again unto thy brother.

Once upon a time, adultery was once punishable by death.
Deuteronomy 22:22 KJV If a man be found lying with a woman married to an husband, then they shall both of them die, both the man that lay with the woman, and the woman: so shalt thou put away evil from Israel.
Rape is evil. A woman forced into sex against her will should bear no shame.
Deuteronomy 22:25 KJV But if a man find a betrothed damsel in the field, and the man force her, and lie with her: then the man only that lay with her shall die:
Deuteronomy 22:26 KJV But unto the damsel thou shalt do nothing; there is in the damsel no sin worthy of death: for as when a man riseth against his neighbour, and slayeth him, even so is this matter:

Any preacher who tells you that you will not go through tribulation in this world is a liar. Hirelings like to tell you what you want to hear, not what you need to hear.
Jeremiah 14:13 KJV Then said I, Ah, Lord GOD! behold, the prophets say unto them, Ye shall not see the sword, neither shall ye have famine; but I will give you assured peace in this place.
Jeremiah 14:14 KJV Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.
Those who have received the covenant of Christ by faith confess sin, repent of it, and wait upon the LORD for healing and restoration.

Jeremiah 14:22 KJV Are there any among the vanities of the Gentiles that can cause rain? or can the heavens give showers? art not thou he, O LORD our God? therefore we will wait upon thee: for thou hast made all these things.
