Bible

2. How wonderful to be wise, to understand things, to be able to analyse them and interpret them. Wisdom lights up a man’s face, softening its hardness.____________Eccl 8:1

3. All go to one place-----------------the dust from which they came and to which they must return. For who can prove that the spirit of man goes upward and the spirit of animals goes downward into dust? _________Eccl 3:20-21

4. Then I observed that the basic motive for success is the driving force of envy and jealousy! But this, too, is foolishness, chasing the wind. ___________Eccl 4:4

6. Say only what is good and helpful to those you are talking to, and what will give them a blessing. ______________Eph. 4:29

9. Never speak sharply to an older man, but plead with him respectfully, just as though he were your own father. Talk to the younger men as you would to brothers you love. Treat the older women as mothers, and the girls as your sisters, thinking only pure thought about them.

10. Whatever you do, do well, for in death, where you are going, there is no working or planning, or knowing, or understanding. ____________Eccl 9:10

11. But we are children of God; that is why only those who have walked and talked with God will listen to us. Others won’t. That is another way to know whether a message is really from God; for if it is, the world won’t listen to it. ____________ 1John 4:6
