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 with this statement. I often consider wisdom to be guidance, and as a follower of Christ, we look to him and his love to lead and guide us throughout life which cause us to love, trust, and depend upon Him.
-
I agree. The Bible tells us that the wisdom of man is foolishness to God. True wisdom comes from God and my love for wisdom should be as one who knows God and loves Him and His truth: His wisdom.
-
I believe that as Christians we are able to “truly love wisdom as God created us to love” because we have the Bible to help guide us and know the giver of all wisdom, knowledge and understanding. God’s Word helps us to learn more about God and have an appreciation for true wisdom. The Bible says to ask for wisdom, to seek for wisdom and that if we do, we will find it.
-
I would agree that “only a believer is able to truly love wisdom as God created us to love.” The reason I believe this, is that the Bible says that God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, so true wisdom comes from God alone. If He alone gives wisdom than I believe that He alone can give me the love, desire, pursuance of that wisdom.

While non-believers can gain knowledge, I would tend to agree that only a believer is able to truly love wisdom as God created us to love. Jesus spoke in parables which were heard by both believers and non-believers; the wisdom that was gained from those parables was only really loved and understood by those who knew Him as Lord.
