Fools & Liars |
How does God address fools and liars (ex. - atheists, heretics, agnostics,
mockers of God)? Read the following examples:
Ps 14:1; 53:1
The fool says in his heart, "There is no God ." (NIV)
Ps 53:1
The fool says in his heart, "There is no God." They are corrupt, and their
ways are vile; there is no one who does good. (NIV)
[Atheists, whether in opinion or practice, are the greatest fools in the
world. Those that do not seek God do not understand; they are like
brute-beasts that have no understanding; for man is distinguished from the
brutes, not so much by the powers of reason as by a capacity for religion.
The workers of iniquity, whatever they pretend to, have no knowledge; those
may truly be said to know nothing that do not know God, v. 4. (from Matthew
Henry's Commentary on the Whole Bible: New Modern Edition)]
Prov 6:16-17
There are six things the Lord hates...a lying tongue... (NIV)
Prov 10:18
He who conceals his hatred has lying lips, and whoever spreads slander is a
fool. (NIV)
Prov 10:23
A fool finds pleasure in evil conduct, but a man of understanding delights
in wisdom. (NIV)
Prov 12:16
A fool shows his annoyance at once, but a prudent man overlooks an insult.
(NIV)
Prov 12:22
The Lord detests lying lips, but he delights in men who are truthful. (NIV)
Prov 13:16
Every prudent man acts out of knowledge, but a fool exposes his folly. (NIV)
Prov 14:8
The wisdom of the prudent is to give thought to their ways, but the folly of
fools is deception. (NIV)
Prov 14:16
A wise man fears the Lord and shuns evil, but a fool is hotheaded and
reckless. (NIV)
Prov 14:24
The wealth of the wise is their crown, but the folly of fools yields folly.
(NIV)
Prov 15:2
The tongue of the wise commends knowledge, but the mouth of the fool gushes
folly. (NIV)
Prov 15:7
The lips of the wise spread knowledge; not so the hearts of fools. (NIV)
Prov 18:2
A fool finds no pleasure in understanding but delights in airing his own
opinions. (NIV)
Prov 23:9
Do not speak to a fool, for he will scorn the wisdom of your words. (NIV)
Prov 26:4
Do not answer a fool according to his folly, or you will be like him
yourself. (NIV)
Prov 26:11
As a dog returns to its vomit, so a fool repeats his folly. (NIV)
Prov 27:3
Stone is heavy and sand a burden, but provocation by a fool is heavier than
both. (NIV)
Prov 27:22
Though you grind a fool in a mortar, grinding him like grain with a pestle,
you will not remove his folly from him. (NIV)
Eccl 7:5
It is better to heed a wise man's rebuke than to listen to the song of
fools. (NIV)
Eccl 7:6
Like the crackling of thorns under the pot, so is the laughter of fools.
This too is meaningless. (NIV)
Eccl 7:9
Do not be quickly provoked in your spirit, for anger resides in the lap of
fools. (NIV)
Rom 1:22
Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools... (NIV)
Many more verses in scripture show clearly that God does not think highly of
those whom He considers fools such as atheists, heretics, agnostic, mockers
of God and the like. And He also makes it clear that we should not answer to
their folly since they are fools. So I encourage my Christian brethren to
not be lured into pointless and vain arguments and discussions with them for
to do so is to lower yourself to their low level and behave in a foolish
manner as well. Leave them be and turn to scripture and prayers for them
instead.
May God bless,
Carl

Then I am corrupt, and my ways are vile, and I do no good. (Ps 53:1) Hmm?
But I seek understanding by questing for evidence, and when I find
understanding, I will find no pleasure therein. (Prov 18:2) Hmm?
I pray, please ignore me.
