What does Proverbs 23:9 teach us?
Proverbs 23:9 ” Into the ears of a stupid one do not speak, for he will despise your discreet words.” Not all, however, obey the good news. The foolish refuse to hear. The wise do not spend much time with these ones. Rather, they search out those who have the ‘hearing ear,’ those who fear God and respect his Word and who see the wisdom of responding to it. please see (Luke 11:27, 28) The fact that many are indifferent and fail to respond to the Kingdom message does not prove that the message is wrong, nor that the preaching of it should not be done. The Scriptures make it clear that many will hear and find the way that leads to life in God’s new world of righteousness.
