God is pure. We have all had experiences of dealing with people who are not pure, are not trustworthy. Again, God has the last word. Moreover, God shows Himself shrewd to the devious. There are those who are devious and use all sorts of tricks to get their own way. It may seem that they are very clever, too clever to be caught out, but God is wiser than all, and all the evil ones will ultimately be caught out.
22:28
There can be a temptation to want to be like the devious, like the liars. Or thinking that we need to adopt similar tactics in order to overcome them. This is not true. God saves the humble, not the devious. Note that God is active. It is not simply that the humble are saved, but that |God saves the humble. Likewise, God’s eyes are on the haughty. He knows what is going on.
