Earthly Wisdom Versus Godly Wisdom
| Proverbs 9:10 |
What is a wise person? If you were asked if you were a wise person, how would you respond? The common perception of
wisdom has to do with brain power such as a person who is a scientist, doctor or a university professor. Others
see it as someone who is aged - after 60 years you are surely a wise person! Our typical response is to not admit
to being wise as it considered a pretentious thing to admit it.

their life. Beware of those who love you for your outward appearance only. Genuine
