The Scorner and Its Consequences
Text: Proverbs 9:12 — “If you are wise, you are wise for yourself, and if you scoff, you will bear it alone.”

The book of Proverbs beautifully contrasts wisdom with foolishness, urging everyone to embrace correction and humility. Proverbs 9:12 emphasises a timeless truth: wisdom benefits the one who accepts it, but mockery and scorn bring personal ruin.
A scorner (or scoffer) is someone who despises correction, mocks righteousness, and resists instruction. Such a person not only rejects wisdom but also negatively influences others, discouraging them from following the path of truth. The Bible warns that this attitude leads to isolation, disgrace, and ultimately destruction.
Sadly, scorning is not limited to unbelievers. Even Christians—those who love God and attend church regularly—may unknowingly display some of these traits. Sometimes we resist correction, justify our wrong choices, or ignore godly counsel because of pride. You may not be a “full-blown scorner,” but if you recognise even a small measure—perhaps 30% or 40%—it is a warning sign that repentance, humility, and correction are needed.

*Characteristics of a Scorner* By Prof Folu Olatona

There are specific characteristics that reveal the nature of a scorner. The Bible provides a clear mirror to help us examine ourselves and ensure that none of these attitudes are found in our hearts.
1. They love their way of life, even when others lovingly try to correct them.
Scorners enjoy doing things their own way and resist any attempt to redirect them. They often view correction as an attack rather than an act of love.
“How long, you simple ones, will you love simplicity? For scorners delight in their scorning, and fools hate knowledge.” — Proverbs 1:22
2. They do not heed correction.
Unlike the wise who learn from discipline, scorners close their ears to rebuke. They prefer to justify themselves rather than change.
“A wise son heeds his father’s instruction, but a scoffer does not listen to rebuke.” — Proverbs 13:1
3. They dislike those who correct them.
Because of pride, scorners avoid those who speak truth into their lives. They are easily offended when corrected and often withdraw from godly people.
“A scoffer does not love one who corrects him, nor will he go to the wise.” — Proverbs 15:12

*The Truth About Wisdom and Scorn* by Prof Folu Olatona

✨ Wisdom blesses the humble.
💔 Scorn destroys the proud.
Caption:
The book of Proverbs contrasts the wise and the scorner.
A scorner mocks truth, resists correction, and refuses to change.
But wisdom rewards the humble with peace, favour, and life.

A wise person loves the one who corrects them and becomes wiser. (Prov 9:12)

*Tribute to My Beloved Dad and Friend*

My dad, my friend — it still feels like a dream that you are gone.
You were not just a father to me, but my very first friend.
You taught me what it truly means to love and to be loved.

You had a rare gift — the ability to make each of your children feel deeply loved and special. I often wondered how you managed to love us all so uniquely, yet so completely, without anyone ever feeling left out.

You not only taught me how to write, but you also believed in my potential even when I doubted myself. You encouraged me to publish my first book at a time when I thought my writing was not good enough. Your words still echo in my heart: “Go ahead, you can do it.”

It is painful that you are no longer here to witness the launch of my 14th book next Saturday. Yet I am grateful to God that you received the joyful news of my promotion to full Professor at the University of Lagos—just four days before you said your final goodbye. It was as though you had been waiting for that moment of fulfilment before you rested.

I miss you deeply. So many times, I still reach for my phone, wanting to call you as I used to. Then I remember—you have crossed over to the other side. But my comfort and joy lie in knowing that we will meet again someday, in the presence of our Heavenly Father, where there is no more pain or parting.

Adieu, my beloved dad and friend.
Your memory will forever remain a blessing in my heart.
