Notes: interesting correlations to Scripture and today's 'reality'.

• (re: Is. 5 passage):  Men rejecting God's law, His TRUTH, delve into perversion, and an 'inconvenient reality.  This will be 'rewarded'.
• (re: Prov. 23, Mark 7, James 1):  Man who doesn't realize his depravity, (a) should not be associated with;  (b) deceives himself; (c) will recognize his sin on judgment day.  Truth says God knows the man, by his deeds, not by his own image he thinks he sees;  God knows the thoughts and intents and judges those, not by his 'profession', his words.
• (re: Prov. 23:9):  Don't waste your 'logic' you debating 'skills, you Godly wisdom, with one who will not hear;  "...don't cast your pearls before swine..."
• (re: Prov. 23:23):  "BUY: truth, wisdom, instruction, & understanding".  This is the pearl of great price, (from the Gospels' parables).
• (re: Prov. 25:26): This is an indictment against Israel, for sure, but also, against all those who claim to be 'Christians", but are not!  "a righteous man who falls at the feet of the evil people, is like a polluted steam, oa poisonous well: of no use to anyone, not beneficial. Sadly, our nation, (the world, even), has not learned this lesson, choosing rather, to call themselves 'Christians" but being false prophets, liars, and murderers.  This is the state of America because the 'pastors' don't stand up to the lies currently pervading the minds of those we entrust to teach our young, or to teach it in their churches, making their congregations aware of the evil imaginations being accepted as 'the new reality'.
