Well, we have another sermon on this topic. But that’s because Proverbs talks about it again. We are going through the first nine chapters of Proverbs, which form a unit, and serve as foundation for the rest of the book. And within these foundational chapters the father repeatedly addresses his son on this all-important topic, which actually was first mentioned in Prov 2:16-17 (and appears more in the book!). He wants his son to be prepared for this powerful temptation. He’s preparing his son for war.
