Are Apostolics Wise?

I know I know... Pharisaical Self Righteous judges who don't believe that everyone who utters the name of Jesus are saved. Just overlook us in our ignorance oh wise one.

Surely, as a man who has the audacity to start a thread of this nature, you must be submitted to the Holy Ghost and ALL KNOWING and ALL WISE!

Please continue with your propositions and continue to wow us with the breadth and depth of your astounding wisdom!

I bow before you!

Again, you need to get your UCdar fixed. You are picking up all kinds of false signals with that faulty device you are using called by some a brain!

I have already stated I need more wisdom. I am not all wise. As a matter of fact, I was simply looking for a reasonable explanation as to why wisdom is not supernatural among us.

We seek for healing, we seek for prophecy, we seek for miracles, why don't we seek for wisdom?

Honestly, Dr. Phil, you've been to hell and back as we all have, give me an honest answer. Why don't we seek for wisdom from above as a sign of God's approval?

Staysharp,

I guess I find the question to be difficult to zero in on because that is a daily prayer that I pray and a daily prayer most men I know pray. Certainly we are daily facing a changing world and persistent yet morphing attacks from the deceiver so Godly Wisdom is essential. I cannot imagine there are any true men of God who do not seek to be empowered through the leading and guiding of the Holy Ghost in every deed, decision and doctrine that they pursue.

Is your experience contrary to mine?

Brother, I think some men look through their own keyhole, and get the idea that they are viewing a panaramic vista of the Kingdom.

Think you nailed it there Br Phil
37 years that I have been in christ my prayer has been for God's word to be revealed to me.

Prayer for wisdom, study for wisdom has been a daily pursuit.

Stay Sharp's question is faulty. Can not be answered.

Thanks for an honest answer. Yes, my experiences have taken me to the altar of wisdom many times seeking God for direction.

My question is sincere. Do you believe God imparts supernatural wisdom today? Is not the gift of wisdom a new testament impartation along with faith, prophecy, healing, etc.?

Speak for yourself.

I do, have for years, and know many men who do also.

Maybe you need to get away from some of your current unwise fellowship and let me hook you up with some good men who can help you in the wisdom department.
