Proverbs- True Wisdom

Points to take to heart:

•  Wisdom is to know one’s self (our true sinfulness) and the glorious way of salvation: Jesus Christ.

 Natural wisdom in all its branches, with all its improvements, and in its utmost latitude and perfection; and spiritual wisdom, which lies in the knowledge of a man's self, his own folly, impurity, impotence, and misery; 

being wise unto salvation; in the knowledge of Christ, as the only way of salvation, and of God in Christ; in partaking of the true grace, which is wisdom in the hidden part; 

in being acquainted experimentally with the doctrines of the Gospel; and in walking wisely and circumspectly, and as becomes it, which is practical wisdom: and all this is the gift of God; as is also Christ, who is wisdom, and is given to be wisdom to his people.

•  True wisdom is given freely by God

“is a very large comprehensive gift, an unspeakable one; which is given freely and liberally, and is never taken away again.”

• True Wisdom is given By the grace of God

"to caution such who search after wisdom, and find it, not to attribute it to their diligence and industry, but to the grace of God; and partly as a direction where to go for it; and as an encouragement to hope to have it, since the Lord freely gives it, (James 1:5); "
