Proverbs 9:7-8
The Scoffer
Last time we began our study of Proverbs.  We observed that the purpose of Proverbs is to give wisdom to people.  So that people know wisdom and use it to manage or direct their life.  To move people from being simple (lacking understanding) to being wise (using knowledge as an active doer of the word).  We also identified three types of people in the book of Proverbs.  The Simple (one lacking understanding, the Sage (one using wisdom), and the Scoffer (one who has knowledge, but fails to use it).  Today we will look at the Scoffer.
