Title: Wisdom
Post by: chanelle on June 11, 2003, 08:18:07 AM
But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle and easy to be entreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partialty, and without hypocrisy.  James 3:17

 1 Corinthians 1:

11.  For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you.
 12.  Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.
 13.  Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?
 14.  I thank God that I baptized none of you, but Crispus and Gaius;
 15.  Lest any should say that I had baptized in mine own name.
 16.  And I baptized also the household of Stephanas: besides, I know not whether I baptized any other.
 17.  For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.
18.  For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
 19.  For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
 20.  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?
 21.  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.
 22.  For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
 23.  But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;
 24.  But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
 25.  Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
 26.  For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:
 27.  But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;
 28.  And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea,  and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are:
 29.  That no flesh should glory in his presence.
 30.  But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
 31.  That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord.

 :) For this cause we also, since the day we heard it, do not cease to pray for you, and to desire that ye may be filled with the knowledge of his will in all wisdom and spiritual understanding.  Colossians 1:9

PROVERBS 4 [4] He taught me also, and said unto me, Let thine heart retain my words: keep my commandments, and live.[5] Get wisdom, get understanding: forget it not; neither decline from the words of my mouth.[6] Forsake her not, and she shall preserve thee: love her, and she shall keep thee.[7] Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.[8] Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her.[9] She shall give to thine head an ornament of grace: a crown of glory shall she deliver to thee.

Yea, we all need wisdom

Jesus Christ,the same today,yesterday and forever
