Proverbs 29:1 "A man who remains stiff-necked after many rebukes will suddenly be destroyed-without remedy."
The New American Standard says, "a man who hardens his neck after much reproof will suddenly be broken beyond remedy."

Now, I want us to look at this lesson under about four headings. The first thing if we break this verse down is that we see a steadfast rebuke. And this is a rebuke that comes to us from God. We know the Bible teaches that all have sinned and come short of the glory of God. And very soon in our life, when we grow to the age where we understand that we have a conscience and we have moral accountability to God and we realize as young ...
