The Fool Self-Test

If you are wise, you are wise for yourself;
    if you scoff, you alone will bear it.
Proverbs 9:12 ESV

I found some notes from 1995. It is good to look at my beliefs and actions to make sure I am not a fool.

AM I FAT, DUMB AND HAPPY? DO I PUT OFF IMPLEMENTING GOD’S CORRECTION UNTIL “LATER”?

The complacency of fools will destroy them.
Proverbs 1:32 ISV

complacent

adjective

pleased, especially with oneself or one’s merits, advantages, situation, etc., often without awareness of some potential danger or defect; self-satisfiedThe voters are too complacent to change the government.

DOES THE WORD OF GOD DO ME NO GOOD?

Like a lame man’s legs, which hang useless,
    is a proverb in the mouth of fools.
Proverbs 26:7 ESV

DO I KEEP DOING THE SAME SINS OVER AND OVER?

Like a dog that returns to his vomit
    is a fool who repeats his folly.
Proverbs 26:11 ESV

WHO AM I WITH?

Whoever walks with the wise becomes wise,
    but the companion of fools will suffer harm.
Proverbs 13:20 ESV

AM I WISE IN MY OWN EYES?

Do you see a man who is wise in his own eyes?
    There is more hope for a fool than for him.
Proverbs 26:12 ESV

WHEN PEOPLE TRY TO GIVE ME GOOD ADVICE, DO THEY FEEL LIKE THEY ARE TALKING TO A WALL?

A fool takes no pleasure in understanding,
    but only in expressing his opinion.
Proverbs 18:2 ESV

DO I TALK BEFORE I LISTEN?

He who answers a matter before he hears it,
It is folly and shame to him.
Proverbs 18:13 NKJV

DOES MONEY DESTROY ME?

Why should a fool have money in his hand to buy wisdom
    when he has no sense?
Proverbs 17:16 ESV

AM I RICH TOWARD GOD?

16 And he told them a parable, saying, “The land of a rich man produced plentifully, 17 and he thought to himself, ‘What shall I do, for I have nowhere to store my crops?’ 18 And he said, ‘I will do this: I will tear down my barns and build larger ones, and there I will store all my grain and my goods. 19 And I will say to my soul, “Soul, you have ample goods laid up for many years; relax, eat, drink, be merry.”’ 20 But God said to him, ‘Fool! This night your soul is required of you, and the things you have prepared, whose will they be?’ 21 So is the one who lays up treasure for himself and is not rich toward God.”
Luke 12:16-21 ESV

WHERE IS MY TRUST?

He who trusts in his own heart is a fool,
But whoever walks wisely will be delivered.
Proverbs 28:26 NKJV

Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
    and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
    and he will make straight your paths.
Be not wise in your own eyes;
    fear the Lord, and turn away from evil.
Proverbs 3:5-7 ESV

HAVE I SAID IN MY HEART, “THERE IS NO GOD.”?

The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”
Psalms 14:1, 53:1 ESV

Jesus is coming very soon. Be ready!

But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief. You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness. Therefore let us not sleep, as others do, but let us watch and be sober.
1 Thessalonians 5:4-6 NKJV

32 “Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near. 33 So you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near—at the doors! 34 Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place. 35 Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.”
Matthew 24:32-35 NKJV

34 But take heed to yourselves, lest your hearts be weighed down with carousing, drunkenness, and cares of this life, and that Day come on you unexpectedly. 35 For it will come as a snare on all those who dwell on the face of the whole earth. 36 Watch therefore, and pray always that you may be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass, and to stand before the Son of Man.
Luke 21:34-36 NKJV

Has the rapture happened?
   You can still be saved and go to heaven!
---
Are you following God's plan for your life?    
   You should.
     Your plan is not going to work. 
     It is a really, really bad plan. 
     Please come to Jesus to escape your plan! 

Most people are WRONG! WRONG! WRONG!

Jesus is coming.
   Are you ready to meet Him?
   Give your life to Jesus Christ.
   Time is running out.
