When ever life troubles me or I don't have some answers I try to pick up the Bible and read it at random. Many a times to my surprise I found answers to questions in front of me. One of my personal favourite is the book of Proverb from the Hebrew Bible or the old testament of the Christian Bible. The books of Proverbs is the guide on ethics, morality, wisdom and contains answers to many of the pressing problems of life. I read the book of Proverbs when I was a kid and it has had a deep impression on my life. It is a guide book to leading a life in accordance with will of God
Last time when I opened the Bible I read chapter six from the book of Proverbs. This chapter mentions seven things that God hates and cannot tolerate.
1.A proud look
2.A lying tongue
3.Hands that killed innocent people
4.A mind that things up wicked plans
5.Feet that hurry off to do evil
6.A witness who tell one lie after another
7.A man who stirs up trouble among friends.
The book of Proverbs was written close to 3000 years back. But all the seven things mentioned are still revalent and will be till time eternity.
