Wisdom and Foolishness

The wise and the Foolish are often contrasted in the Bible and especially in the Book of Proverbs. The Characteristics, reputation and results of each are worth knowing if wisdom is our goal.

The wise                                                                                   The Foolish

Give Encouragement                                                            Lack common sense

Enjoy living wisely                                                                 Enjoy foolishness

Consider their steps                                                              Gullible (Avoid the wise)

Hungry for Knowledge                                                         Feed on the trash of foolishness

Valve wisdom above riches                                                Valve riches above wisdom

Respond to correction                                                         Don’t respond to punishment

Pursue wisdom                                                                      Pursue illusive dreams

Trust in wisdom                                                                     Trust in themselves

Control their anger                                                                Unleash their anger

The Results;

Stay on right path                                                                 Enjoy the wrong path

Their wisdom conquers others strength                         Endangered by their words

Grow stronger                                                                       Will never be chosen as leaders
