“…the righteous are bold…” - Proverbs 28:1
I love this verse more every time I read it and I always have to ask myself the question, “Why are the righteous bold?”
Those who know the Lord, who are serving the Lord as best they know, those who love the Lord - the righteous… “are bold”. They are not proud, or boastful. They are not pompous, or assuming, they “are bold”! Why?

“But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you” - Hebrews 6.9
In the above verse the Lord is speaking to people who claimed to be born again Christians. These people were also Jewish/Hebrews, hence the name of the book. They were sometimes confused because they felt they were getting to heaven because they were “good Jews”.
