 | My son, if sinners entice you, do not give in to them. |
 | My son, if sinners entice thee, consent thou not. |
 | My son, if sinners entice you, Do not consent. |
| Proverbs 1:10 |
Commentary
Here is a warning against enticement by sinners who will succeed if his son fails to embrace wisdom (v. 8).
Sinners -This term is reserved in Scripture to describe unbelievers for whom sin is continual and who endeavor to persuade even believers to sin with them.
 | And those who heard it said, "Who then can be saved?" But He said, "The things which are impossible with men are possible with God." |
 | And they that heard it said, Who then can be saved? And he said, The things which are impossible with men are possible with God. |
 | They who heard it said, "Then who can be saved?" But He said, "The things that are impossible with people are possible with God." |
| Luke 18:26-27 |
Commentary
Who then can be saved: Jesus answered this question by explaining that the change of heart one must experience in order to know God is possible only through Him. Any person who enters the kingdom does so only by the marvelous grace of God (John 3:3).
