Knowledge, Understanding, Wisdom: Part I

By The Word, now also The King Messiah Christ Jesus

As wisdom personified, I will open your minds and Father’s spirit will help each of you get the sense of true understanding. It is a relationship akin to taking in true knowledge verses false knowledge or knowledge that does not benefit you spiritually. The latter could be example by the intake of knowledge and subsequent understanding of “rancidity.” If you studied that subject, took in the knowledge, gained the understanding that butter for example, if left exposed to warm moist air for a length of time it would turn rancid. Furthering your understanding of this subject, you would learn that with the rancidity the butter loses its flavor and acquires a disagreeable odor. You would also learn through your coming to an understanding, that two kinds of reactions are responsible for rancidity. They are “hydrolysis” and “oxidation.” In this example you have been imparted KNOWLEDGE, and UNDERSTANDING. The first two of three parts. WISDOM follows the first two parts. I’ll explain. Without any of the above knowledge or understanding, if butter goes bad your God-given sense of smell warns you that the butter is foul and should not be eaten. This is a gift from Father that is expressed through nature. Your ability to distinguish good from bad by simply smelling it. Another could be taste. Or, it might show signs of being rancid to your ability of sight. Whether you have taken in knowledge coupled with understanding, or your God-given senses warn you of something being fouled, here enters WISDOM. The wisdom is that you do not partake of something that might harm you.

Matthew 4:5 Then the Devil took Him to the holy city, had Him stand on the pinnacle of the temple, and said to Him, “If You are the Son of God, throw Yourself down. For it is written: He will give His angels orders concerning you and, they will support you with their hands so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.” Jesus told him, “It is also written: Do not test the Lord your God.”

Just as I refused to take an action that would harm myself when tempted by Satan. I was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the Devil. That “Spirit” was Father’s. The Devil had no control over me. Father’s Spirit led me to be tested by Her archenemy as part of my mission on this planet. My wisdom was not to do bodily harm to myself by putting Father’s command to Her holy angels to the test. This wisdom came from my knowledge and understanding of the human vessel, but also, from the wisdom imparted to me by Father.

It is not a good thing to abuse your vessel or to test Father. Satan knew I’m the Son of Father. The test was to try and stumble me by showing pride, stubbornness, self-will and independence on my part which are enemies of understanding of Father’s Way. The wisdom I possess told me not to test Father, but to answer him from Father’s own Word, of which I’m the Living Word of our Creator. All answers to all questions are found within the Word. In all three tests Satan gave me I answered him with Father’s writings, and withstood his tests by the wisdom I possess from above. “from above” is not heaven. It is Father who is above all other things in existence.
