Every Wise Woman Builds Her House

Contributed by Sunitha Justin on Sep 15, 2020

Knowingly or unknowingly, as women, we are in the business of building – building lives. It is necessary to build our homes as a wise woman. Three ways: Build with a strong foundation: WORD OF GOD. Build with a strong connection: PRAYER. Build with strong brick of LOVE

Proverbs 14:1 - Every wise woman builds her house, but a foolish one tears it down with her own hands. Here Solomon contrasts once again between wisdom and folly, as in many other verses in Proverbs. And often, in all these verses, we find foolish people to be at one end of the spectrum and the ...read more

Don't Accept Any Substitutes

Contributed by Edward Frey on Jun 5, 2002

There is no substitute for salvation through faith in Christ. There is no substitute for those who clearly teach such truth!

For example, soybeans don’t make very good hamburgers. Saccharin doesn’t really taste like sugar. ...read more
