TA’AVAH III: The Types of Wisdom

There are two types of wisdom; True wisdom is proven in conversation and humility of wisdom - James 3:13 The Types of Wisdom 1. Earthly, Sensual or Devilish/Demonic Wisdom - James 3:14-16 This is the kind of wisdom that doesn’t come from God but is of the world. There is wisdom that originates from this earth realm and its source is the devil or satan. •Earthly - Wisdom relating to earth or human life. And it exists on the earth. •Sensual - Relating to or involving gratification of the senses and physical, especially sexual pleasure. •Devilish - Like or appropriate to a devil in evil and cruelty. It’s also Diabolical and wicked. •This wisdom produces the works of envy, jealousy, bitterness, selfishness, confusion and every evil work. 2. Divine Wisdom - James 3:17 The wisdom of God is from above and it comes from heaven; •It’s first Pure - Not mixed or adulterated with any other substance or material. •Then Peaceable - Inclined to avoid conflict. The wisdom of God is peace loving. •Then Gentle - Having or showing a mild, kind or tender temperature or character. It also means moderation in action, effect, or degree; not strong or violent - Galatians 5:22, Mathew 12:17-21. •Easy to be intreated - Easy to be begged, pleaded with. Easy to implore (beg someone earnestly or desperately to do something) and finally to intercede on behalf of someone else, as Moses intreated God for Israel (Exodus 32:7-14). Be blessed as you listen to this thought provoking and challenging message from our father!
