Today's podcast (19 mins) is "On Contempt of Vain and Worldly Knowledge" (Book 3, Chapter 43).
Scripture:1 Cor 1:26-27; 2 Tim 4:3; Num 16; Ps 94:10; 119:100,130; Col 3:4; Zeph 1:12; 1 Cor 4:5,20; 12:11..Application: * "Sweet-sounding compliments": beware flattery, and people lowering the standard. * "Never read the Word to appear learned or wise": Read not for head knowledge or to impress others, but to become like Christ. * "... children clearer knowledge": Let's strive to keep our hearts young. * "I will reveal your [private] motives": Often mixed or impure motives are concealed in the fog of argumentation and rationalization. * "Ten years in schools": Again, wisdom is not the same thing as knowledge. It has a deep spiritual component, and cannot be learned by mere years of schooling. * "Forsaking all earthly things": This is the key to true wisdom (knowledge spiritually applied). * "Gentle and soft-spoken": Jesus engages and challenges us in proportion to the softness of our hearts.
