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.
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.
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?

How is pointing out that God ordained local churches and not organization institutions of education shifting the blame?
If men aren't being developed properly, the blame is on the ministry, specifically pastors, of which I am one. Bible schools are in my opinion a stopgap measure that is regrettably filling a need because pastors aren't mentoring as they should. They are a bandaid but not the ideal solution.
You can have ten thousand instructors, but the real need is fathers.

You keep failing to acknowledge the dichotomy between the gift of the word of wisdom, and the wisdom from above that James talks about.
Every believer should have wisdom--from God, His Word, and His imparted nature, and from experience.
This is not the same thing as the supernatral gift Paul references in
I Corinthians 12.
And again, your judgment that anyone who is against tv ministry is dumb and ignorant is incredibly arrogant and simplistic. That in itself is no litmus test.
There are men with a lot of wisdom, good minds and good hearts on both sides of that issue.
