Wisdom is Better than Strength

I think that it is good for us to remember that all of the Scriptures are meant ultimately to point us to our Lord Jesus Christ and the wisdom that is in Him. The Scriptures are not meant to simply give us ethical principles to live by; which we will then learn, somehow, apart from the living relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ, and go about to do them. A sincere Christian does not want to be wise in a worldly sense. A person can be wise in regard to worldly things and totally unwise in spiritual things. All the right ethical precepts and righteous moral principles of the Word of God do stand as an authoritative testimony to the will of God for every person in every generation.
But salvation from sin, and having eternal life are based upon finding, by grace, the One and only Person who can deliver your soul from spiritual death and give you the wisdom which will lead you to eternal life. So at this hour I would like us to pursue wisdom from that vantage point; the vantage point of knowing and remembering the One poor wise man who by His wisdom has delivered the "city" (His Church) from sin and Satan. Let us remember that in our Lord Jesus Christ we will find the wisdom which will be saving and profitable in every sense to our soul. 1st of all - We want to look at fact that when we know Christ, wisdom is better than strength. Then 2ndly – We want to see that when we know Christ, the words of wise men spoken quietly should be heard. And 3rd - We will hope to see that when we know Christ, wisdom is better than weapons of war.
