Welcome to Wisdom Today with Bill Kelley. Today we will be going over Proverb 19. I will then key in on verse 1 - The wicked flee when no one pursues, But the righteous are bold as a lion. When considering this verse, I ask myself - Why would the wicked flee, if no one is pursuing them? I can think of two things. First of all, they have a guilty conscience about something they've done. Whether they've harmed someone, or maybe stolen something, they may be asking themselves if someone is going to find out what they've done? Their guilt begins to consume them. So they get antsy and feel they have to move to a different location. The lesson to be learned is that if you only do right things, then you will not feel guilty and won't feel threatened or fearful that you will be "found out". Today we will continue our study on Matthew's Gospel - taking a look at Chapter 19. Enjoy!
