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.
-
Yes I agree with the statement. Because the believer acknowledges the existence of God as the creator, as the one who holds wisdom and the ultimate source of the truth. The believer knows that God is love and that God’s wisdom and truth is founded on true love. Believers can trust God’s word and wisdom rather than their own understanding of the world. When believers acknowledge this they can truly love wisdom even when that wisdom may be challenging to them. To truly love wisdom means that at times, believers need to renounce to their own desires and sinful nature and obey God. To submit to the truth even when the entire world is questioning it or has deviated from it. Because loving wisdom is acknowledging the existence of God and his sovereignty over this world.

I agree that only a believer is able to truly love wisdom as God created us to love. God is love and the only way anyone knows true love is through Him. A non believer may claim to love but does not understand the full meaning of the word.
-
Yes. We are ever learning the love of God. To truly love, the way God intended, is to be ever learning in His word. The love that Christ has for us is unconditional.
-
I agree that only a believer could love true wisdom because true wisdom comes from God. Someone who is not a believer would not typically love what is truly wise because they are not guided by the Spirit.
-
Agree, In Christian education, believers have a special ability to truly love wisdom as God intended. This comes from their close relationship with God, which changes the way they think and seek wisdom that aligns with God’s truth and values. Education is not just about learning facts, but also growing spiritually and becoming better people. God’s teachings in the Bible and through Jesus provide a unique understanding of truth and wisdom.
