Smart Man and a Wise Man

What is the difference between a smart man and a wise man?

A smart man can get himself out of situations that a wise man would never be in...:peace:

A wise man builds his house upon a rock.



A smart man carefully plans a house on sand that might even last a few seconds in a storm, then tries again and again until he decides to be a neighbor to the wise man.

wow, great question.

I am thinking it is the difference between knowing 'head knowledge" of the word and "heart knowledge" of the word.

Isn't a wise guy a member of the Mob?



I jest, I jest.



A smart man is the guy who knows all about everything. He has lots of book smarts, but doesn't apply it. He knows everything, but he doesn't have the sense God gave a turkey.



The wise man has knowledge, and the ability to apply it. He's got sense.

Not everyone can be smart, but even the simple can be wise.

I think smarts come from books and wisdom come from experience.

I was smart enough not to go by memory for this Scripture.



Wisdom/experience taught me to use other sources when necessary.



Taken from E-Sword:youngs Literal Translation.



Jas 1:5 and if any of you do lack wisdom, let him ask from God, who is giving to all liberally, and not reproaching, and it shall be given to him;





Shalom

Mr.Magoo

A smart man will go out on a date with you, a wise man will marry you.

A Smart knows that 2 + 2 = 4.



A WISE Man knows WHY they Equal 4.



Knowledge is the "Brick and Mortar" used to build with.



Sagacity (Wisdom) is knowing just how to use those "Bricks and Mortar".



The quality of being discerning, sound in judgment, and farsighted is Wisdom.



Able to name every Capitol for every state is Smart.



Nothing Wrong with being Smart (our President is Smart).



But being Wise is where you want to be (which our Prez seems to be lacking).



OOpS...did I start a Bru-Ha-Ha?



That wasn't very Smart...or is it Wise?

Archman;

doesn't 2 + 2 = 4 because of two things with regard to "equal"...on the one hand, computers = means assignment...in math = means "the same as"....am I off on that, cause I want to be a "wise man'...really I do.

bless,

michael
