‘Where is wisdom to be found? Job 28:20

Where is wisdom for living to be found?

Isaiah 11:1-3 A shoot shall come out from the stock of Jesse, and a branch shall grow out of his roots. 2 The spirit of the Lord shall rest on him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord. 3 His delight shall be in the fear of the Lord.

Human wisdom Conveyed by ‘lofty words’ and ‘plausible speech’ A wisdom of ‘this age’ And of the ‘rulers of this age’ God’s wisdom Goes back before the creation of the world Inaccessible to the rulers of this age Revealed to us by the Spirit Consists of the ‘mind of Christ’

Philippians 2:1-5 Imitating Christ’s Humility If then there is any encouragement in Christ, any consolation from love, any sharing in the Spirit, any compassion and sympathy, 2 make my joy complete: be of the same mind, having the same love, being in full accord and of one mind. 3 Do nothing from selfish ambition or conceit, but in humility regard others as better than yourselves. 4 Let each of you look not to your own interests, but to the interests of others. 5 Let the same mind be in you that was * in Christ Jesus,

We have the mind of Christ

The path of the righteous is like the light of dawn, Which shines brighter and brighter until full day. Proverbs 4:19
