​​Summary & Intro:

In the name of liberty and progress, families units have been destroyed and unraveled by new cultural standards of equality. There are no honored roles anymore. Rebellious husbands forsake their duties to lead and provide for their families, The wives have forsaken there duties to manage their homes and children, and abandoned the home altogether. Children are taught to think discipline is unhealthy and no one disciplines the children,  No one’s home life is stable, everyone’s angry with each other, everyone is demanding their rights, and now 16 year olds are bossing around the United Nations
…No wisdom
It is a moral right to kill your innocent child, but unacceptable to execute a convicted murderer.
…No Wisdom

​Dealing with verse 1:

• Who of you bears this wisdom? Do you consider yourself wise?
• The Wisdom of God, His ways, past finding out..
• 1 Cor 1:20,2:6-7 Spiritual Wisdom is folly to the carnal wisdom of this world, even the babes struggle to walk in it,.. it is for the spiritual man
• We only demonstrate wisdom to the degree we demonstrate Christ. Maturity in Meekness.
