What does Jesus say about wisdom?
Proverbs 4…
"🌿 What does Jesus say about wisdom?
What do you do with what you know about the word of God?
When the Lord talks about sin, what do you do with that information?
When the Lord talks about goodness, what do you do with that information?
Here’s the thing…
Wisdom isn’t just being the winner at Bible trivia.
Nope!
Wisdom = applying God’s Word to our lives. 💡
Wisdom is actually knowing what to do with both the law and the gospel of God.
The law absolutely comes to show us our sin. It shows us the dangers of evil.
And just when we begin living in that darkness of sin and evil and knowing we are so broken, the gospel reminds us yet again that we belong to God.
In Christ, we're baptized.
That's our place. That's where we belong.
You’re not the sum of your sins.
You do not belong to darkness.
You belong to Jesus.
