Study Notes

Understanding Wisdom

  • Wisdom can be categorized into good (or divine) wisdom and bad (or fallen) wisdom.
  • Wisdom manifests through three distinct tests: thought, speech, and action.

The Three Tests of Wisdom

  • Thought Process:

    • Wisdom originates in the heart, influencing overall thinking patterns.
    • The way one thinks is a fundamental indicator of their wisdom.
  • Speech:

    • Thoughts generally precede words; thus, what a person says often reflects their wisdom.
    • The correlation between thought and speech is emphasized in various scriptural texts, highlighting the importance of measured expression.
  • Actions:

    • True wisdom is revealed through behavior; knowledge alone does not equate to wisdom.
    • Effective wisdom transforms knowledge into thoughtful actions, demonstrating its practical application in life.

Key Insights

  • Possessing information does not guarantee wisdom; wisdom involves heart, mind, and behavior in harmony.
  • A comprehensive understanding of wisdom requires evaluation of how an individual thinks, speaks, and acts.
