4My son, pay attention to my wisdom lend your
ear to my understanding, that you may preserve
discretion, and your lips may keep knowledge.
For the lips of an immoral woman drip honey, and
her mouth is smoother than oil but in the end
she is bitter as wormwood, sharp as a two-edged
sword. Her feet go down to death, her steps
lay hold of hell. Lest you ponder her
path of lifeher ways are unstable you
do not know them
5Remove your way far from her, and do not go
near the door of her house, lest you give your
honor to others, and your years to the cruel one
lest aliens be filled with your wealth, and your
labors go to the house of a foreigner and you
mourn at last, when your flesh and your body are
consumed, and say How I have hated instruction,
and my heart despised
correction! (Prov. 51-12)
6My son, keep your fathers command, and do not
forsake the law of your motherFor the
commandment is a lamp, and the law a light
reproofs of instruction are the way of life, to
keep you from the evil woman, from the flattering
tongue of a seductress. Do not lust after her
beauty in your heart, nor let her allure you with
her eyelids. For by means of a
harlot a man is reduced to a crust of
bread and an adulteress will prey upon
his precious life. (Prov. 620-26)
7You have heard that it was said to those of old,
You shall not commit adultery. But I say to
you that whoever looks at a woman to lust for her
has already committed adultery with her in his
heart. If your right eye causes you to sin,
pluck it out and cast it from you for it is more
profitable for you that one of your members
perish, than for your whole body to be
cast into hell. (Matt. 727-29)

Greed Covetousness Pride Laziness
9Now godliness with contentment is great gain
But those who desire to be rich fall into
temptation and a snare, and into many foolish and
harmful lusts which drown men in destruction and
perdition. For the love of money is a root of
all kinds of evil, for which some have strayed
from the faith in their greediness, and pierced
themselves through with many sorrows. (1 Tim.
66-10)
10My son, if sinners entice you, do not consent.
If they say, Come with us, let us lie in wait to
shed blood let us lurk secretly for the innocent
without cause let us swallow them alive like
Sheol, and whole, like those who go down into the
Pit we shall find all kinds of precious
possessions, we shall fill our houses with spoil
cast in your lot among us, let us
all have one purse
11My son, do not walk in the way with them, keep
your foot from their path for their feet run to
evil, and they make haste to shed blood. Surely,
in vain the net is spread in the sight of any
bird but they lie in wait for their own blood,
they lurk secretly for their own lives. So are
the ways of everyone who is greedy for gain it
takes away the life of its
owners. (Prov. 110-19)
12Beware that you do not forget the Lord your God
by not keeping His commandments, His judgments,
and His statutes which I command you today,
lestwhen you have eaten and are full, and have
built beautiful houses and dwell in them and
when your herds and your flocks multiply, and
your silver and your gold are multiplied, and
all that you have is multiplied when
your heart is lifted up and you forget
the Lord your God (Deut. 811-14)

Alcohol Drugs
14Do not look on the wine when it is red, when it
sparkles in the cup, when it swirls around
smoothly at the last it bites like a serpent,
and stings like a viper. Your eyes will see
strange things, and your heart will utter
perverse things. Yes, you will be like one who
lies down in the midst of the sea, or like one
who lies at the top of the mast, saying
When shall I awake, that I may seek
another drink? (Prov. 2331-35)
15Now the works of the flesh are evident, which
are sorcerydrunkenness, revelries, and the
like of which I tell you beforehand, just as I
also told you in time past, that those who
practice such things will not inherit the kingdom
of God. (Prov. 519-21)
Sorcery (Greek pharmakeia) the use or misuse
of drugs
16Woe to him who gives drink to his neighbor,
pressing him to your bottle, even to make him
drunk, that you may look on his nakedness! You
are filled with shame instead of glory. You
alsodrink! And be exposed as uncircumcised!
The cup of the Lords right hand will be turned
against you, and utter shame will be on your
glory. (Hab. 215-16)

Lying Cheating Stealing Deception
18You are of your father the devil, and the
desires of your father you want to do, He was a
murderer from the beginning, and does not stand
in the truth, because there is no truth in him.
When he speaks a lie, he speaks from his own
resources, for he is a liar and the father of
it. (John 844)
19You shall not have in your bag differing
weights, a heavy and a light. You shall not have
in your house differing measures, a large and a
small. You shall have a perfect and just weight,
a perfect and just measure, that your days may be
lengthened in the land which the Lord your God is
giving you. For all who do such things, all who
behave unrighteously, are an
abomination to the Lord your God. (Deut.
2513-16)
20These six things the Lord hates, yes, seven are
an abomination to Him a proud look, a lying
tongue, hands that shed innocent blood, a heart
that devises wicked plans, feet that are swift in
running to evil, a false witness who speaks lies,
and one who sows discord among brethren. (Prov.
616-19)
21Satan beckons you
- It will be fun
- It will feel good
- You deserve it
- Nobody is watching
- No one will ever know
- Come on, just this once
- Hey, nobodys perfect
22Satan knows
- If you look often enough or if your look lingers
long enough - You will give in to temptation and he will have
you.
