Since this is a day of great wisdom, shall we consider this deep and philosophical thought.
Just because you are Apostolic does that make one wise?
Does having perceived truth or revelation make on wise?
Because you baptize in Jesus Name does that make you wiser than other Christians?
Does having the H.G. make you wiser?
And lastly, does education or learning give you wisdom?
Does wisdom equate to intellect? Many geniuses can't function in the real world.
Does too much learning actually make you mad? (as in crazy)
Raised in the church and in the ministry most of my adult life, I've witnessed pastors, preachers and laity alike do some pretty dumb stuff.
If we really do have the full revelation of the Godhead, the full revelation of Salvation, the full revelation of the H.G., why are we so backward and stupid at times?
Being Apostolic does not mean one is wise. It means that one has received from the Lord.
Received from the Lord what? If any man lack wisdom, let him ask of God who gives it liberally...If we are so spiritual, why are we so stupid? Have we not asked for wisdom?
i believe wisdom is acknowledging god and living according to his precepts so of course apostolics should be wise, now are they, oh no, not all the time for any of us, lol,dt

I would like to be wiser but then there are some things I just don't want to know.

He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God? Micah 6:8 KJV
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. 1 John 3:2 KJV
Christians ARE told to be wise and to "test all things"..... Yet far too many are all to willing to appeal to the "God of the gaps" for most of their knowledge.
