By The Word, now also The King Messiah Christ Jesus.
Understanding must be based on knowledge. The extent and worth of your understanding is measurably affected by the quantity and quality of your gained knowledge. Knowledge is an acquaintance with facts, and the greatest and most fundamental fact is Yahweh our Father and Mother of creation, Her existence, Her invincible purpose and power, and Her Way. Wisdom is derived from the first two parts.
Proverbs 1: 1-6
“The proverbs of Solomon son of David, king of Israel:
For gaining wisdom and being instructed;
for understanding insightful sayings;
for receiving wise instruction
in righteousness, justice, and integrity;
for teaching shrewdness to the inexperienced,
knowledge and discretion to a young man—
a wise man will listen and increase his learning,
and a discerning man will obtain guidance—
for understanding a proverb or a parable,
the words of the wise, and their riddles.”
As you gain wisdom from past knowledge and understanding, you are further instructed for more understanding and insightful sayings.
saying >noun a short, commonly known expression containing advice or wisdom.
Father’s advice is wisdom directly from Father. If you come to an understanding of what Father’s thoughts are within the Word, then the wisdom is imparted. Part of the Word contains instructions. Those instructions are a guide to those that seek Father with an honest and good heart. Father does not wish that anyone should perish. But each person must stand on his or her own merit.
If you purchase or borrow a book and it contains knowledge and possibly instructions that are hard to discern from the first reading, then perhaps you will re-read it over and over trying to gain an understanding of what the instructions are trying to explain and convey so that you get the full meaning. Perhaps the more you read the less you can comprehend what it’s really trying to instruct you on. This is how the Word was written. It was written so that Father’s Wisdom must come into play in order to fully get the sense of the deeper meanings within the Word. In this way, Father’s Word acts as block against those that are undeserving of eternal life’s hope. They imagine that the Word says something entirely different than what Father spoke. In this, they lean upon their own understanding. But Father has provided a helper for Her flock so that they continue to receive wisdom from Her.
With the Word, there is an interaction of mind and heart upon those whom She chooses, by their considering, analyzing, reasoning, pondering, and meditating over the Word’s Scriptures. Father examines all hearts, and if acceptable, the Word becomes more than a mere writing of words. It serves in an ongoing learning process that brings understanding and wisdom from Father. But if a person is not acceptable to Father, they will not accept the truth. They are kept in darkness about Father and Her future plans. If like Judas Iscariot, they knew the truth but did not follow the narrow path, then they are stripped of any further wisdom from Father. Their end will be the same as Judas and all of the rest of Satan’s followers.
