The Lord Gives Wisdom
The Lord gives wisdom ; from His mouth come knowledge and understanding.
PROVERBS 2:6
Are there limits to the knowledge we can acquire? With today's amazing technology we are able to tap into incredible sources of information. Yet Bill Gates, visionary founder of Microsoft, claims that we are only on the threshold of far greater wonders. In his book The Road Ahead, Gates makes this prediction: "When tomorrow's powerful information machines are connected on the highway...you'll be able to stay in touch with anyone, anywhere, who wants to stay in touch with you; to browse through any of thousands of libraries day or night."
Surely we are grateful for the technology that makes available such remarkable means of obtaining information. A mere accumulation of facts, though, doesn't add up to insight understanding. All the learning of philosophers, the speculations of ethicists, and the achievements of scientists can't explain to us the truth about God.
So don't squander your time merely acquiring facts. It's far better to study the truth God has given us in His Word. Remember: "The Lord gives wisdom".
WE CAN GET INFORMATION ONLINE,
