Sermon Outline
Wisdom & Knowledge (Proverbs 1:1-7)
Two main points:
- The desire for wisdom and knowledge v 1-6 (the main part unpack insights, prudence, right, just and fair; etc and the difference between wisdom and knowledge)
- How to get this Wisdom – v7
Two things from the text:
- Firstly, it is only the beginning of knowledge
- Secondly, the fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge and not just wisdom!
- Proverbs 9:10 mentions that “the fear of the Lord is beginning of wisdom and the knowledge of the Holy One is insight”.
Knowlege and wisdom are tied together; you can’t have wisdom without knowledge nor can you have knowledge of God and not gradually obtained to wisdom.
