Fully Equipped

(Pro 6:32 KJV)  But whoso committeth adultery with a woman lacketh understanding: he that doeth it destroyeth his own soul.

My thinking is geared to the actual sins Proverbs is talking about.  I am running into the same question while I am reading Ezekiel.  This chapter has a varied listing:  Co-signing on a loan, sloth, deceitful talk, winking (yes, winking), causing dissension, arrogance, murder, theft and of course adultery.  If that isn’t long enough for you I could read it again and probably pull out some more.

None of these sins are impossible for us to avoid.  In fact, most of them should be automatically avoided at this point in your life.  That is the result of a steady diet of Wisdom, or it should be.  If we avoid churches where the preaching leads to conviction because it lacks content then it may be we have missed a lot of other things besides an altar call.  If we never read the parts of the Bible that call us to repentance then we have been very limited in our reading.

So?  God calls us to do something He has equipped us to do:  Live an upright life.
