Ah, you destroyer, who yourself have not been destroyed, you traitor, whom none has betrayed! When you have ceased to destroy, you will be destroyed; and when you have finished betraying, they will betray you. - Isaiah 33:1 (ESV)

"Belial (בְלִיַּעַל bĕli-yaal) is a Hebrew word "used to characterize the wicked or worthless."

 The etymology of the word is often understood as "lacking worth", from two common words: beli- (בְּלִי "without-") and ya'al ( יָעַל "to be of value"). 

Some scholars translate it from Hebrew as "worthless" (Beli yo'il), while others translate it as "yokeless" (Beli ol), "may he have no rising" or "never to rise" (Beli ya'al)."

""Belial" is applied to ideas, words, and counsel, to calamitous circumstances, and most frequently, to worthless men of the lowest sort, such as men...in general who stir up contention." - Wikipedia: Belial/Hebrew Bible.

A worthless person, a wicked man, goes about with crooked speech, winks with his eyes, signals with his feet, points with his finger, with perverted heart devises evil, continually sowing discord; therefore calamity will come upon him suddenly; in a moment he will be broken beyond healing. - Proverbs 6:12-15 (ESV)

Every Parent's Nightmare

We know that anyone who has been born of God does not keep on sinning. - 1 John 5:18 (ESV)

If you're guilty of anything, it's time to get nervous.

Help find the predators who won't leave little kids be.

Let's catch 'em, lock 'em up and throw away the keys.


We know that we are from God, and the whole world lies in the power of the evil one. - 5:19 (ESV)

We know that everyone who has been born of God does not keep on sinning. - 1 John 5:18 (ESV)
