If you think our educational institutions are "the foundation for generational Apostolicdom," then we are nowhere near the same page.
The local church is the foundation. God ordained that, not Bible Schools.

Many local churches have schools and should. A bible school can be a local church. Any institution that teaches is a school. Again, shift the blame.

And if the benchmark for "wisdom" is agreeing with your position on tv advertising, etc. then your definition is pretty simplistic.
|
As it should be Coon, if men can't find common ground on such a simplistic platform, how are we going to reach a world? This to me shows the height of ignorance in men who are unwilling to consider others may be right.

Furthermore, the supernatural gift you are referring to is called "the word of wisdom," which is not the same as wisdom in the context of James' writings regarding the wisdom from above vs. that which is earthly, sensual, and devilish. And yes, that takes some time to develop.

Either wisdom comes from God or it doesn't I agree earthly or sensual understanding is developmental, however I am asking about H.G. filled men of God and why the supernatural gift of wisdom does not seem to be in operation.

The word of wisdom is situation specific, as I understand it.

I have no problem with that statement, but you and I should agree there has been many 'situations' it should of been applied.
If we are so wise, then why are we so dumb? I'm not throwing stones Coon, I'm including myself. Shouldn't there be more wisdom from above?
