Do you know the difference between wisdom and knowledge?

"Wisdom" comes from knowledge; "Knowledge" comes from experience.  For example, you know the stove is hot.  Is that because your parents told you (wisdom) or because you touched the stove (knowledge)? 

"Experience" is the best teacher...but it doesn't have to be your experience.  If we would listen to wisdom (the experience of others), we wouldn't have to get burned to know the stove is hot.

The Bible is filled with wisdom...if we would just listen.  I mean, c'mon, who has more experience than God, who created everything.  Only a fool would ignore his wisdom.

For instance, Proverbs 11:1 tells us, "A false balance is abomination to the Lord.  A "false balance" is cheating.  Charging different prices to different customers based on...well, anything, is wrong.  You might think offering "discounts" is righteous, but if you can offer a discount to one, why not offer it to all?  Offering discounts, is man's way...it's not God's way.  Choosing man's way over God's way is the road to hell.

Why do people choose man's way over God's way?  People simply don't really believe God is real.  If they did, this world would be a much different, much better place. 

Until you know, without a doubt, God is real...nothing else matters.
