Proverbs 5

Do Not Commit Adultery

 Proverbs 5:1 "My son, attend unto my wisdom, [and] bow thine ear to my understanding:"

Proverbs 5:2 "That thou mayest regard discretion, and [that] thy lips may keep knowledge."

Proverbs 5:3 "For the lips of a strange woman drop [as] an honeycomb, and her mouth [is] smoother than oil:"

Proverbs 5:4 "But her end is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a twoedged sword." 

 Proverbs 5:5 "Her feet go down to death; her steps take hold on hell."

Here again He tells us son listen to my instructions! Stay away from sinful women! Don't get involved with her; she will not be faithful to you!

Do Be Faithful to Your Spouse

Proverbs 5:15  "Drink waters out of thine own cistern, and running waters out of thine own well."

Proverbs 5:16 "Let thy fountains be dispersed abroad, [and] rivers of waters in the streets."

Proverbs 5:17 "Let them be only thine own, and not strangers' with thee."

Proverbs 5:18 "Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth."

Proverbs 5:19 "[Let her be as] the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love."

. God made one man for one woman, and they two become one flesh; not for a few days but for a lifetime together on this earth.

Proverbs 5:20 "And why wilt thou, my son, be ravished with a strange woman, and embrace the bosom of a stranger?"

Proverbs 5:21 "For the ways of man [are] before the eyes of the LORD, and he pondereth all his goings."

Proverbs 5:22  "His own iniquities shall take the wicked himself, and he shall be holden with the cords of his sins."

Proverbs 5:23 "He shall die without instruction; and in the greatness of his folly he shall go astray."

You cannot hide from God.  You cannot keep any secrets from Him. There is a record being kept, and someday the books will be opened. If we have lived in sin, we shall be ashamed to stand before God.  We see, here, that sin gets worse as time goes on. A person caught up in this type of life will tie their own selves up in this sin. Adultery seems to be especially bad to the Lord. This sin of adultery, which also includes homosexual and lesbian acts, carries its own special punishment with it! Unless this type of sin is repented of and turned away from totally, the end of this person is such it would have been better had they never lived.
