The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom;
\nall who follow his precepts have good understanding.
\nTo him belongs eternal praise.<\/p>\n
Psalm 111:10<\/p>\n

Can it then be said that the non-religious world is without wisdom?
\nHas it no Aristotle, no Socrates, no Tacitus, no Goethe, No Gibbon?
\nLet us understand what wisdom is. It is not any mere amount of knowledge
\nthat constitutes wisdom. Appropriate knowledge is essential to wisdom.<\/p>\n

A man who has not the knowledge appropriate to his position, who does
\nnot know himself in his relation to God and to his fellow-men, who is
\nmisinformed as to his duties, his dangers, his necessities, though he
\nmay have written innumerable works of a most exalted character, yet is
\nhe to be set down as a man without wisdom.<\/p>\n

If you have learned to estimate things in some measure as God estimates
\nthem, to desire what he offers, to relinquish what he forbids, and to
\nrecognize the duties that he has appointed you, you are in the path of
\nwisdom, and the great men we have been speaking about are far behind you-
\nfar from the narrow gate which you have entered. He only is wise, who can
\ncall Christ the wisdom of God.<\/p>\n
