The Bible counsels you and I thus:
WISDOM is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get UNDERSTANDING. (Proverbs 4: 7).
I can boldly inform you, without fear or favour that the ONLY true information in terms of knowledge, understanding and wisdom in this World that is sure and safe for living victoriously and successfully in this World are the ones written in the Bible by holy men who are inspired and driven by the Holy Spirit of God. Therefore, take note, take heed! (2 Peter 1:19-21; 2 Timothy 3:16,17).
I have personally found out and confirmed by experience and observation that:
True information in terms of KNOWLEDGE of LIFE for victorious survival, peaceful success and joyous satisfaction in this World is not found in the educational, economy, political and religious training systems of this World, but in God in Christ only. True!
True information in terms of UNDERSTANDING of LIFE for victorious survival, peaceful success and joyous satisfaction in this World is not found in the educational, economy, political and religious training systems of this World, but in God in Christ only. True!
True information in terms of WISDOM of LIFE for victorious survival, peaceful success and joyous satisfaction in this World is not found in the educational, economy, political and religious training systems of this World, but in God in Christ only. True!
Before now, the wisest man on Earth in the Old Testament era, king Solomon discovered this:
Lo, this only have I found, that God has made man upright; but they have sought out many inventions. (Ecclesiastes 7:29).
Men over the years has collaborated with the devil to develop all sorts of knowledge, understanding and wisdom that unknown to many are dangerous and destructive to human well-being and existence on Earth. True!
This is why Apostle Paul counselled thus:
Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments (principles) of the world, and not after Christ. For in Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily. 10. And ye are complete in him, which is the head of all principality and power. Colossians 2:8-10).
God in His infinite mercy and grace has revealed the secret to achieving GOOD SUCCESS (success without sorrow) on Earth to human, but still many are not listening and compelling and they still call themselves Christians. That is a lie! (James 1:21-26).
The Bible reveals the secret to good success on Earth as thus:
This book of the law shall not depart out of thy mouth; but thou shalt meditate therein day and night, that thou mayest observe to do according to all that is written therein: for then thou shalt make thy way prosperous, and then thou shalt have GOOD SUCCESS. (Joshua 1:8)
And King Solomon the wise confirmed it thus:
The blessing of the LORD, it MAKES rich, and He adds NO sorrow with it. (Proverbs 10:22).
Do you get it?
When life's trials, temptations and challenges hits hard on you, you will discover the uselessness and hopelessness of the World's education and information. Yes, you will, if you have not found out already. Therefore, the Bible counsels you and I thus:
I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that you PRESENT your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service. And be NOT conformed to this world: but be YOU transformed by the RENEWING of your mind, that YOU may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God. (Romans 12:1, 2; James 1:2-8).
Thinking, speaking and living in conformity with the ways and manners of the World will automatically and daily cut you off knowing and living the will of God for you in Christ in this World. True!
This is because your consistent thinking, speaking and living in conformity with the World grieves the Holy Spirit and may eventually quench the Holy Spirit within you and it is the Holy Spirit within you that reveals God's will concerning you in Christ to you. True! (1 Corinthians 2:9-16; Ephesians 4:30-32; 1 Thessalonians 5:19).
Let me alert you and inform you that:
If you are completely driven by the PHILOSOPHY of the World, you are not a true Christian and not living wisely and smartly in this World, because living in this World is far beyond the philosophy of the World. True!
If you are completely driven by your PROFESSIONAL education, you are not a true Christian and not living wisely and smartly in this World because living in this World is far beyond your professional education. True!
If you are completely driven by your PERSONAL development, you are not a true Christian and not living wisely and smartly in this World because living in this World is far beyond your personal development. True!
True Christians like King David should be able to boldly say:
O how LOVE I thy law! it is my meditation all the day. Thou through thy commandments hast made me WISER than mine enemies: for they are ever with me. I have MORE understanding than all my teachers: for thy testimonies are my meditation. I understand MORE than the ancients, because I keep thy precepts. I have REFRAINED my feet from every evil way, that I might keep thy word. I have NOT departed from thy judgments: for thou hast taught me. How SWEETS are thy Words unto my taste! yea, sweeter than honey to my mouth! Through thy precepts I GET understanding: therefore I HATE every false way. Thy WORD is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path. (Psalm 119:97-105).
Can you confidently say that? If not, you not a true Christian. Yes, you are not!
This is why Apostle Paul said thus:
Let no man DECEIVE himself. If any man among you seems to be wise in this world, let him become a fool, that he may be wise. For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He takes the wise in their own craftiness. And again, the Lord knows the thoughts of the wise, that they are vain. Therefore let no man glory in men. For all things are yours; Whether Paul, or Apollos, or Cephas, or the world, or life, or death, or things present, or things to come; all are yours; And ye are Christ's; and Christ is God's. (1 Corinthians 3:18-23).
True Christians are those who are completely driven by the PRINCIPLES of God in Christ alone and I mean alone in their thinking, speaking and living on Earth. (Psalm 19:7-14).
True Christians are those who are completely driven by the PRINCIPLES of God in Christ alone and I mean alone in ALL their dealings on Earth.
Are you one of them? If not, seek the Lord for understanding and wisdom now before it is too late for you on Earth.
Read your Bible for knowledge and ask God for understanding and wisdom. Knowledge is gotten, but understanding and wisdom are given. (2 Timothy 2:15; Luke 24:44-46; James 1:2-8).
A true Christian will always say that if God said it and I believe it, that settles it. Halleluyah!
God bless you.
