Wisdom is a skill in living that begins with fearing God, then progresses to guarding your mind, choosing your companions, controlling your body, monitoring your words, pursuing your work, managing your money, and loving your neighbor. Very simple. But that’s it. And when you’ve done that, you’ve learned wisdom. It’s vital to be taught wisdom. For example, as a father, if I fail to teach my son to fear God, the devil will teach him to hate God. If I fail to teach my son to guard his mind, the devil will teach him to have an open mind. If I fail to teach my son to obey his parents, the devil will teach him to rebel and break his parents’ hearts. If I fail to teach my son to select his companions carefully, the devil will choose them for him. If I fail to teach my son to control his body, the devil will gladly teach him to give it completely over to his lusts. If I fail to teach my children to enjoy speech that is honorable to God, the devil will fill their mouths with filth. If I fail to teach my children to pursue their work, the devil will make them lazy. If I fail to teach them to manage their money, the devil will teach them to waste it on riotous living. If I fail to teach them to love their neighbor, the devil will gladly teach them to love only themselves. And the only reason I can pass any of this wisdom on to my children is because God has graciously made it all available in the Bible.

Our Identification
Christians were called before the world began; that's election. They were called out of the world it time; that's redemption. They were called from the world; that's sanctification. But they were also called to someone, and this would be the doctrine of identification. Look at Ephesians 1:4, "He chose us in Him," in Him. Verse 5, "He predestined us to the adoption as sons through Jesus Christ to Himself." We have literally been placed in Christ and adopted as sons. Verse 6, "Accepted by God in the Beloved." And what you have here is our identification with Jesus Christ. We are in Christ. God has adopted us as His sons through Christ. And we have been blessed. How? Because verse 6 says, "We are in the Beloved One." Ephesians 1:6 states that God has freely bestowed His grace upon us, making us accepted in the Beloved, which refers to Jesus Christ. So, what do we have here? We have a tremendous identification with God because we're God's children. That's how intimate it is. We are the children of God, therefore we ought to conduct ourselves accordingly. Ephesians 5:1 says, "Be imitators of God, as beloved children." If you are the children of God, then act like it. We are God's children; we bear His nature, His name, His mark, and we are called to intimacy with Him. And how intimate is that? Literally, we are one with Christ, 1 Corinthians 6:17, "He that is joined to the Lord is one spirit." We are one with Jesus Christ. God has called us into union with Him, into union with Christ. The Holy Spirit has taken up residence. Our body is the temple of the Holy Spirit. We primarily are not only saved to join a group of other Christians; we are saved to enter into a personal, intimate, unique relationship with the living God in Christ and in the Holy Spirit. It's just an astounding reality. The world around us cannot even comprehend us. They can't tell us how to behave, because they don't even comprehend us. When anybody in the world looks at a Christian, they don't see reality. They don't see who we really are. According to Romans 8, that's because the glorious manifestation of the children of God hasn't yet been visibly revealed. If they only knew who they were talking to. But they don't have a clue. When you walk into the market or go to work every day or go to school or talk to your neighbor, people have no idea that the eternal God of the universe lives within you. They have no idea that you are an eternal child of God, that the life of God pulses literally in your soul. They have no idea that you are a brother to Jesus Christ, a joint heir with Christ, of whom He is not ashamed to call you brother. They have no idea who you are, because that glorious visible manifestation hasn't happened yet. But it will happen when Christ returns. Why? Because we are called before the world; that's election. We were called out of the world; that's redemption. We were called from the world; that's sanctification. And we were called to God; that's our identification. Repent and believe!
