In Proverbs 9:13, the writer personifies foolish choices. How does he describe Folly in verse 13? 4. Folly invites people to join her in Proverbs 9: How does she attract people to foolish choices in verses 14 and 15? What are some of the ways you see Folly issue invitations to people in today s culture? What type of person does Folly include in her invitation according to verse 16? What is the end result of accepting the invitation from Folly according to verse 18? 5. In Proverbs 5, Solomon instructs his son on how to avoid the serious and deadly folly of sexual immorality.

5 Proverbs Folly Women in the Word September 20, 2012 Proverbs 5:15 18 Drink water from your own cistern, running water from your own well. Should your springs overflow in the streets, your streams of water in the public squares? Let them be yours alone, never to be shared with strangers. May your fountain be blessed, and may you rejoice in the wife of your youth. Proverbs 10:21 But fools die for lack of judgment. Proverbs 1:32 The complacency of fools will destroy them Proverbs 3:35 The wise inherit honor, but fools get only shame. 1 Corinthians 6: The body, however, is not meant for sexual immorality but for the Lord, and the Lord for the body. Do you not know that your bodies are members of Christ himself? Shall I then take the members of Christ and unite them with a prostitute? Never! Do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body? For it is said, The two will become one flesh. But whoever is united with the Lord is one with him in spirit. Flee from sexual immorality. All other sins a person commits are outside the body, but whoever sins sexually, sins against their own body. Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies. I Thessalonians 4:3 5 It is God s will that you should be sanctified: that you should avoid sexual immorality; that each of you should learn to control your own body in a way that is holy and honorable, not in passionate lust like the pagans, who do not know God. Matthew 5:27,28 You have heard that it was said, you shall not commit adultery. But I tell you that anyone who looks at a woman lustfully has already committed adultery with her in his heart. I Corinthians 10:23, 24 I have the right to do anything, you say but not everything is beneficial. I have the right to do anything but not everything is constructive. No one should see their own good, but the good of others. Proverbs 22:16 Train a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not turn from it.
