Which 2 are true? I bet you were fooled…

Are you wise or foolish? There’s a difference between being fooled and being foolish You become a wise or foolish person by the way you respond to influences in your life

Let’s look at your influences Friends Adults Family TV Cell phone Music Movies Internet Games GODChurch

TV shows Music Movies Internet Games Foolish Wise List titles in the best fitting column

Those influences are important, because, here’s what a fool is: F O O ilters nothing out wns little ( takes no responsibility) beys the flesh L eaves out God

Here’s a wise person W I S E ord as a filter nvested in people & things pirit-led njoys friendship with God

Are you foolish or wise? Don’t be foolish with the influences… Become wise by allowing the Word to filter out unacceptable foolishness You might get fooled, but you can avoid becoming a foolish person It is better to be a poor but wise youth than an old and foolish king. Ecc. 4:13
