Ecc 7:5 It is better to heed the rebuke of a wise person than to listen to the song of fools.<\/p>\n
The fleshly prideful soul of a man hates criticism and adores praise. Solomon the great teacher paints a rather infamous perception that is adopted by wise people who embrace correction and accepts guidance with a desire to become wise in the process.<\/p>\n
When a wise person out of pure no ill motive release a sharp cutting sword of rebuke , it should be diligently listened, cordially received and accordingly acted upon . Though it may be disagreeable to the flesh, and give present pain, yet the effect will be good, and shows that a man who hears it, longs to be wise to equal he that gives it.<\/p>\n
Giving careful attention to correction is a pathway to gaining wisdom and a diluting agent to unworthy songs of praise . <\/p>\n
