Purity of the biblical kind is rare today. It was God's design from the beginning of time. Yet, most not only refuse to live or believe in a biblical ethic, but choose to fight. Often may live miserably because of it. Today we get to discuss 3000 year old advice from the wisest man who lived before Christ, Solomon and hear his reasons for a life changing choice that brings with it the greatest blessings of life.

The next generation doesn't hear what we say if we are not willing to do what is wise while we teach them. Pass it on. It will make a difference for not only the next generation, but also for all time.
