For they hate knowledge and did not fear the Lord.

They wanted none of my counsel.

They despised my reproof.

Therefore, they ate of their own ways

and filled with their own devices.

For turning away from the simple shall slay them

and the prosperity of the fools shall destroy them.

When I read that man, it touched me in my heart

because people say they want to change their life, people say they want to be

better, people say they want to accomplish great things, people say they want to

be successful, but they fear the knowledge they hate it.

And you know why they hate the knowledge? Because knowledge requires you to be diligent.

Once you have knowledge, you now have responsibility now

now becomes priority. You can no longer say you naive.

You can no longer say you're naive.

You can no longer say I didn't know.

You can no longer say I didn't know. You can no longer say, this is my first. Once you have the knowledge, your universe changes.

The possibilities changes,

and you become responsible.

And then the next thing say they wanted none of my counsel. So what happens when you get the knowledge, when you don't want the knowledge,

or you get the knowledge, or you have access to the knowledge, but then you get

somebody that wants to teach you but you despise that counsel.
