The lecturer states she “would contend that only a believer is able to truly love wisdom as God created us to love.” Do you agree or disagree? Explain.
-
I agree, of course, because our God is the truth, and truth is the basis for wisdom.

Often wisdom and knowledge are confused. We can know many facts, but God gives us insight to use the facts. I agree with those who have pointed out that the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. As our instructor said, Daniel and Moses were raised in communities where people in their culture did not worship God. They were taught who God is and worshipped him when it could have cost them their lives. God gave them discernment. That message is very relevant today.

I agree. I think of King Solomon when God asked him what he wanted and Solomon asked for wisdom. Because he was a faithful follower of God, he was blessed by God with this humble request knowing he was going to be a King. Solomon was showing his love for his people he would govern by wanting to be a wise ruler. When we love the Lord we want to honor Him with our first fruits, therefore our desire for Godly wisdom is a natural longing.

I agree because it is only with a true understanding of our creator and eternal life that we can learn with a grateful heart. Having a Christian worldview allows us to understand the bigger picture and true meaning behind the quest for knowledge. Knowledge is a gift from God which allows us to carry out the good works that he has planned for us.

I agree, God is the author of all good things. Widom is his, love is his, and the skies are his handy work too. If we “love wisdom” it is the expression of the seeds he has sown in us.
