OS The Moody Bible lasUlute. Chteagd. P DUCATION is so widespread in •“* our day, and so eagerly sought after, that one might assume that trte world would soon solve its problems through the cultural attainments ot Its people. Why this is not true appears clearly In oor lesson; for it to wisdom that the world needs, and wisdom is quite different from the snderstanding or memorising of a mass of facta. Wisdom teaches us bow to use knowledge effectively for the glory of God. We see in our lesson: I. The Meaning of Wisdom (Prov. 1:1-5). DROVERBS are pithy, useful say- * ings, which gather up the wisdom of a people in easily remembered form. They are highly thought of in all nations, but reached their highest development among the Hebrews. because they rightly insisted that they must be related to God and worship of him. We learn in this passage that they are given to us that we may • know*’ that we have both wisdom instruction. The growth of knowledge is always a prerequisite to growth In grace—learn more about God and his precious Word, and you will have more of his grace upon you. Knowledge must be coupled with discernment (v. 8). which speaks of going beyond and below the surface meaning. This will not be an abstract love of the scholarly, but a practical appli< ation of troth to life (v. 8). Wisdom results in right living and proper dealing with our neighbors. The one who has come to this place is ready to give (v. 4) help to others, especially to the young or those of "simple" thinking, who have not yet reached the place where they can get bold ot such things for themselves. Notice that the wise man does not stop at that point, but because he is wise be goes on to more and more understandings, to further receiving and giving out of "sound counsels" (v. S).

Observe next, / 11. The Value of Wkdom (Prov. 3:13-18). THE character of a man shows •jp In the things he holds to be valuable. Some cannot see beyond gold and silver. Others seek comfort and convenience, and do not wish to be disturbed In their easy ways. The wise man knows that for real pleasure of the highest type, for peace of mind and heart, for riches that will last and not bring him into cither sin er sorrow, there is nothing like the cultlva-/ lion of understanding and wis-j dom. < This scripture affords us the/opportunity to say a needed worn to young people who are being so sorely tempted these days to forego their opportunities for an education, and to rush out into the world to make money, more money, yes, the most possible money. Education seems to be unnecessary. a waste of time and effort But wait, the years will come and go, and then when it Is too late, the realization will come that a golden opportunity was missed, and that doors of usefulness and effectiveness are now closed. < It pays to give time to the Cultivation of the mind and of the'heart in preparation for life. We,'are not thinking primarily of the dollars and cents value now, for that is secundary, even though it may be important 111. The Source of Wisdom (Prov. 9:0. 10; James l:*k GOD is the source of wisdom, and it io as a man fears him that he becomes wise. The fear of God is not a matter of fright or terror, but rather a genuine concern that one may do his will and never daii to be obedient to bis guidance. •God is always mure ready to itfve than we are to receive. He will sot turn us aside, or belittla our efforts; but will, if we ask, give wiadgxn, and that io no little measure. , Let aa man think that he,/can attain unto tree wisdom fcpsrt from a right relationship te God. He may have knowledge.,but not wiadom. On the other bagd. let no man who knows God Mte serves him go through life lacking wisdom when ail he hag to do to to aak tt of hie heavenly Father. Why be povertjpate'icken when you can be rich in win Sam and understanding?
