"Human Wisdom versus Spiritual Wisdom"


“Human Wisdom versus Spiritual Wisdom”

 

What we have received is not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may understand what God has freely given us.  This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual realities with Spirit –taught words.  The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit.       1 Corinthians 2:12-14

 

In order for God’s Children to KNOW His will and to understand His Laws and His Precepts, we MUST have SPIRITUAL WISDOM, which is given to us at the time of our SALVATION.    The Plan of SALVATION was prepared by God, the Father and brought about through the DEATH and RESURRECTION of His Son the Lord Jesus Christ.  And it is being applied to EVERY TRUE BELIEVER through the work of God’s Holy Spirit, which indwells the TRUE BELIEVE at the time of CONVERSION. 

 

This PLAN originated in God and is taught by His Spirit.  The Spirit of God TEACHES the TRUE BELIEVERS the aspects of our SALVATION, and He does this using SPIRITUAL WORDS, and bestowing upon each TRUE BELIEVER, SPIRITUAL WISDOM.  He does NOT use words that are taught to the unregenerate mankind, which produces HUMAN WISDOM, but cannot produce SPIRITUAL WISDOM. 

 

The UNSAVED PERSON, cannot understand the SPIRITUAL WORDS or the SPIRITUAL WISDOM, because they do NOT possess the SPIRIT of God, and they do NOT ACCEPT the things that come from the Spirit of God, because they consider them to be FOOLISH, and they cannot understand them, because they do NOT possess the Holy Spirit of God, who is our TEACHER and GUIDE.

 

These UNSAVED PEOPLE, only understand the HUMAN WISDOM, which falls short of being able to UNDERSTAND the plan of SALVATION, and they regard it as FOOLISHNESS, which is leading MANY to an ETERNITY in Hell, with ALL its HORRORS and NO WAY of ESCAPE.  They are LOST and without HOPE.  The ONLY WAY for them to RECEIVE SALVATION, and the SPIRITUAL WISDOM, they NEED to UNDERSTAND it.  They NEED to HAVE the HOLY SPIRIT INDWELLING them.  And to do that they MUST BE WILLING TO TURN AWAY FROM their sinful lifestyle and TURN TO GOD, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  They MUST BELIEVE, with ALL their HEART, that JESUS died for THEM, and is now ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for them, before God.  Then they MUST CONFESS their sins to Him and ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  They MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and RECEIVE the SPIRIT of GOD, and the SPIRITUAL WISDOM of their SALVATION.  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and coming SOON!!!
