Proverbs 3:28



Daily musings, gripes, etc.  (limit 3-5)  😏
  1. Betrayal is no way to make friends.  Real life or movie line?
  2. Snake in the grass!
  3. People will always show you their true colors.  Wait for it...

Proverbs 3:28 - Do not say to your neighbor, "Go and come back, and tomorrow I will give it," when you have it with you.  NASB

Key words/phrases:

  • come back H7725 return, turn back
  • give H5414 deliver, grant, recompense

Study Questions:  
  1. Who is your neighbor?
  2. Does this passage deal with material goods only?

Personal application:    Owe no man nothing but to love one another!  Rom 13:8.  Pay your bills as soon as they come in the mail, not net 30, 60, or 90 days!...Blessings on your day.  😇
