| God’s Wisdom |
| Here are three short statements on the subject of wisdom that I have copied down in my notebook over time: |
| • The wisdom of man is self-centered — the wisdom of the Bible is Christ-centered. |
| • God’s wisdom gives man joy here in this life and a happy, blessed eternity — Man’s wisdom leads to sorrow in this life and an eternity of suffering and woe. |
| • One truth from the Bible is worth more than all the wisdom of man. |
| The early believers in the city of Corinth were placing a great deal of importance and value on human wisdom and reasoning. Here is what the Apostle Paul exhorts them on the matter: “For Christ sent me … to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect … Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe … But of Him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom” (1 Corinthians 1:17, 20, 21, 30). |
