Be wise, my son, and make my heart rejoice, that I may make a reply to him that is taunting me.
Look at it this way...you become a father and someone comes along and tries to turn your son away from you. They taunt you by saying he only loves you because you give him nice things. If you take those things away he would not love you.
So to stop satan from taunting God we should love God no matter what is going on in our lives. And God will give us the gift of everlasting life when he puts an end to satan and his demons.
Satan and his followers have tried to turn everyone against Jehovah. He started from the beginning and he has turned a beautiful earth with perfect people into a den of iniquity and a horrible place with wicked men and filth everywhere.
Jesus will soon bring the earth and it's inhabitants back to perfection and cleanse the earth of the evil that abounds here.

Taunting? You propose such as you're doing right here and calling us cheating and conflict mongering Trinitarian Christians. You do lead a sheltered existence do not you. you have not have been given any ideal what the choose of God is interior the 1st place enable alongside decide all of us who does do the choose of God. You provide a team of folk actuality and that's what you get? i think of the interest you chosen to apply 'hypocrisy" is extremely befitting of the question. i'm a Bible believing Christian who additionally believes that the trinitarian view of God is a correct view, on an identical time as believing the Jesus is entirely a guy, an archangel named Michael, who's return to earth would be invisible and his resurrection replaced into not his physique yet replaced into raised as a spirit creature and that's not discovered interior the Bible however the declare is they only have self assurance what the Bible says. relatively? i could pass on and on with the genuine HYPOCRISY and the genuine Apostates and who the genuine call callers are. that's the top question which you will possibly assume from a cult member.

(Proverbs 27:11) Be wise, my son, and make my heart rejoice, that I may make a reply to him that is taunting me.
Recall that Jehovah is the Divine Author, and that these words are His. The largest fulfillment of this prophecy is connected with Genesis 3:15.
(Genesis 3:14-15) Jehovah God proceeded to say to [Satan] the serpent: “...And I shall put enmity between you and the woman [God's heavenly organization] and between your seed [Satanic persecutors of true worshippers] and her seed [primarily Jesus, secondarily other Christians]. He [Jesus] will bruise you [Satan] in the head [such that you die permanently] and you [Satan] will bruise him [Jesus] in the heel [such that he dies temporarily].”
For centuries, Satan has pretended that those humans and angels who worship Jehovah do so for selfish reasons.
(Job 1:9) Satan answered Jehovah and said: “Is it for nothing that Job has feared God?
The human Job provided some "reply" to Satan, but Jesus' successful completion of a perfect loyal life (and willing sacrifice for God's purposes) handed to Jehovah a unique "reply" with which Jehovah could answer Satan's slanderous accusations against God.
Interestingly, this helps bible students to recognize another reason why Jesus the Son is a distinct person from Jehovah the Father.

I read Proverbs 27:11 and there is nothing about taunting God. He says that we should do his will. Sorry.

YHWH/Jehovah is speaking here. He is admonishing everyone to use wisdom in their decisions and follow His advice and the example of His only-begotten Son Yhshua/Jesus because when we do not follow the Way of YHWH and His Son then satan can "critisize" "taunt" "reproacheth" YHWH, in effect, satan can claim
'look, these humans of yours, they follow me! they believe me when I tell them that they can be their own boss and not have to obey You! and they believe me when I tell them they will never die, that their soul goes on living somewhere after their body dies. so now I have become the god of this world in your place!'
satan says we dont need God, that we can be God and rule ourselves with our own kingdoms/governments in place of God's Kingdom- Genesis 3:5
satan says that we never die- Genesis 3:4
satan is the god of this world of politics and divided governments- 2 Corinthians 4:4; Luke 4:5, 6; John 14:30
satan uses all these things to "critisize" "taunt" "reproacheth" YHWH and YHWH is so loving that He is giving us every possible moment to accept His righteous way and Kingdom and reject satan's governments and ideas about immortality of the soul-
2 Peter 3:9

Satan is the one who is taunting God. The name Satan means "slanderer" or accuser.
He taunted and continues to taunt God that his human subjects are only faithful to him because he bribes them w/ goods, and protection. But, if he removes these favors men will curse him

On one level it is saying the wisdom of children both reflects credit on parents and contributes to their aid in difficulties.
On another level, our relationship with God, when combined with verse 12, it is basically saying evil is going to result from a life of sin. We get the earthly consequences but we hide from that day of judgment and God is our lawyer so to speak. But the "simple", they're going to pass right on into it and will be punished.

* Who is taunting God/YHWH/Jehovah at Proverbs 27:11? Why? *
Solomon, the son of David and Bathsheba taunted The Lord. Absolute power does tend to corrupt absolutely. Solomon was giving one of his sons a don't be like me lecture. It's the Satan in man that does the taunting.
The Bible Proverbs 27: 11 - 12
Be wise, my son, and bring joy to my heart; then I can answer anyone who treats me with contempt. The prudent see danger and take refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it.
The Bible 1 Kings 11:1
But king Solomon loved many strange women, together with the daughter of Pharaoh, women of the Moabites, Ammonites, Edomites, Zidonians, and Hittites:
The Bible 1 Kings 11:2
Of the nations concerning which the LORD said unto the children of Israel, Ye shall not go in to them, neither shall they come in unto you: for surely they will turn away your heart after their gods: Solomon clave unto these in love.
The Bible 1 Kings 11:5
For Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the Zidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites.
The Bible 1 Kings 11:6
And Solomon did evil in the sight of the LORD, and went not fully after the LORD, as did David his father.
The Bible 1 Kings 11:7
Then did Solomon build an high place for Chemosh, the abomination of Moab, in the hill that is before Jerusalem, and for Molech, the abomination of the children of Ammon.
The Bible 1 Kings 11:9
And the LORD was angry with Solomon, because his heart was turned from the LORD God of Israel, which had appeared unto him twice,
The Bible 1 Kings 11:11
Wherefore the LORD said unto Solomon, For as much as this is done of thee, and thou has not kept my covenant and my statutes, which I have commanded thee, I will surely rend the kingdom from thee, and will give it to thy servant.
Have a pleasant day.

First, the text of Prov. 27:11 is written by Solomon, and refers to human beings who might criticize him for his son's bad behavior. He is saying, 'don't act like a jerk and give people a reason to criticize me.'
Second, the older Septuagint form of the verse reads: "Son, be wise, that thy heart may rejoice; and remove thou from thyself reproachful words."
