Proverbs 20:9
October 20, 2009
Your daily dose of Proverbs:
“Who
can say, ‘I have kept my heart pure;
I am clean and without sin?” - 20:9.
I am clean and without sin?” - 20:9.
The answer to the question in this verse is "No one!" You must be careful when dealing with the sin of another, for you have plenty of your own. This is why Jesus spoke of taking the plank out of your own eye before tending to the speck in your brother's eye (see Matthew 7:3-5). Have you become arrogant toward someone else when you should be humbling yourself before God?
