Favor or Condemnation
Commonplace –
“A good man obtaineth favour of the Lord: but a man of wicked devices he will condemn” (Proverbs 12:2).
We should aspire to God’s favor. In Proverbs 12:2, we are instructed on how to obtain it: be good, do what is right. Choose the path of the wicked and you invite God’s punishment.
