The Story of King Solomon

Solomon was the wisest 
man who "knew it all."
But this didn't prevent him
 from "taking a fall."

The wisdom of God he
 began disobeying.
By the many foreign women 
he began marrying.

Even in all of his splendor, 
glroy and riches.
He sought a "new" fulfullment 
in his wives' wishes.

He built temples in honor 
to foriegn deities.
Neglecting his God-given 
wisdom and abilities.

His heart turned from serving the true God.
As his life turned into a sinful epilogue.

May this be a stern warning
 for me and you.
That our commitment to God 
remain faithful and true.

All of man's wisdom can't save your soul.
For Jesus loves you more 
than you'll ever know!

Run from the wordly pleasures... 
in Jesus believe!
His eternal treasure is the 
best gift you'll receive!

Accept his gift of salvation 
before it's too late.
So  you don't end up as Solomon--
with a similar fate!
