I see knowledge as a tool used by the Spirit of God to equip people with Faith, Hope and Love: Things they CAN take with them into eternity. Sidenote: Such is the achilles heel of Calvinism, there is a disguised temptation to put faith in the tool, rather than the giver of the tool. You can be sure when a real Christian calvinist gets in a car wreck and is laying in a pool of his own blood feeling life ebb away, he will be calling on the Person of Jesus, Not reciting the 5 points of Calvinism.

" ------------- Brother, When a man builds a tower and it starts to lean, a foolish and prideful man keeps building, a wise man tears it down piece by piece even to and especially the foundation, until he discovers the reason for it leaning.

It also could be that a man has built a 'out of balance structure' on a good foundation, a foundation never designed to support it. Some people build with knowledgeable only, some build with spirituality only, both these will lean on a foundation designed to support only a balanced structure. Post Reply
