The foolish and workers of iniquity

Joseph Meriweather ... member of the body of Christ

This morning I was reading in Psalms:

Psalm 5:5 The foolish shall not stand in thy sight: thou hatest all workers of iniquity.

The word "foolish" means stupidity - unwise - absurd

"Iniquity" means deviation from right - wickedness - a wrongful or unjust act

Also Jesus spoke about the workers of iniquity and the foolish:

Matthew 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. 22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? 23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. 24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock. 26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: 27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
