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 would agree with this statement. God is the one who has gifted us with the wisdom and given us the love of learning. Only through him can we gain true understanding and appreciation for that wisdom.
-
I think anyone could love wisdom, but yes, I think that to love wisdom “as God created us to love,” complete wisdom, it requires that some fear God.
-
If wisdom is a Godly wisdom, not just knowledge of God and other things, then yes. Only those who truly know and love God can love his wisdom.
-
I totally agree with this statement. God created us to love and not only commands us to love but He gives us the power to love. No one can really feel this love or power unless they are a true believer in God. Wisdom only comes from God. We can’t do anything in our own power. So if a person is a believer, he/she will know that the only way to truth is through Christ. They will then learn to reverence God in all truth which leads to the fear of God then that is the beginning of wisdom.

Yes, I would agree. If fear of God is the foundation of wisdom, how can we truly love wisdom without loving the foundation of it?
