Wisdom is often counter-intuitive. It is not what seems sensible to many. Yet, true wisdom will be advantageous in the end.
(Borrowed text)
This is the wisdom of God.
Who are Wisdom's children? Despite the appearance of the outer cup, we are they, being reborn of LOVE, have wisdom's DNA of faith to OBEY God’s instructions for the greater good.
My assignment instructions: Isaiah 58:1 (a) "Shout it aloud, do not hold back. Raise your voice like a trumpet. Declare to my people their rebellion and to the house of Jacob their sins."
Good works are necessary and therefore not to be discounted, for without them faith is dead. But we are not proven to be righteous by works; neither are they alone commanded of us.
By faith shall you believe, by faith shall you receive, and by faith shall you be justified.
John 14:23 Jesus replied, “Anyone who loves me will obey my teaching."
What then is Jesus's definition of LOVE? Obedience.
Man o' man, leave it to that, "insane" John, as the Pharisees labled him, to put things into perspective. No question about it, if you love Him. . .
Therefore, though man may choose to bless everyone, but me, I will remain obedient to God, in every way; choosing to love God with all of my heart, soul, and mind; and love man also, friend and foe alike, praying for them when God commands it.
Proverbs 4:7 Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.
