Rooted in Biblical Wisdom!
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 children to fear God, the devil will teach them to hate God. If I fail to teach my children to guard their mind, the devil will teach them to have an open mind. If I fail to teach my children to obey their parents, the devil will teach them to rebel and break his parents’ hearts. If I fail to teach my children to select their companions carefully, the devil will choose them for them. If I fail to teach my children to control their body, the devil will gladly teach them to give it completely over to their 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.

Reconciliation is by the will of God and by the act of God's forgiveness, but it's also by the obedience of our faith. To make reconciliation happen, the sinner must respond because there is no salvation apart from faith. There is no salvation apart from the willingness of the sinner. And we know this is true because John 1:12 says, "As many as received Him, to them He gave the right to become children of God, even to those who believe in His name." And yet verse 13, "They're not born of blood, nor the will of the flesh, nor the will of man, but of God." We know it's a work of God, but still, it's not apart from the sinner. It's through the sinner's expression of will. God is a beggar pleading with sinners. God Himself is pleading through you with sinners. We are the representatives of a pleading God, a begging God, crying out to sinners, asking them to please repent, believe, be saved, and be reconciled to Him. So, the ministry of reconciliation, the work of reconciliation, is by the will of God through forgiveness, by the means of faith. But that's not all: it's also by the work of substitution. It was BB Warfield who said, "Substitution is the heart of the heart of the gospel." And the most condensed, clear, and comprehensive statement of the meaning of substitutionary atonement on the pages of the New Testament is 2 Corinthians 5:21, "He made Him who knew no sin to be sin on our behalf so that we might become the righteousness of God in Him." If God is not going to impute our trespasses to us but rather is going to impute Christ's righteousness to us, how can He do that and still be just? Here's how. "He"—that's God—"made Him"—that's Christ—"who knew no sin." Now, follow carefully. On the cross God treated Christ as if He had personally committed every sin ever committed by every person who would ever believe, though in fact He committed none of them. Let me say it in a more personal way. On the cross, God treated Jesus as if He lived your life. God poured out the full fury of His wrath against our sin as if Christ was the guilty one. Isn't that what's pictured in the sacrificial system of animals, going back to Leviticus chapter 1? We say it this way: on the cross God treated Jesus as if He were a sinner, though He was never a sinner. Why did He do that? On our behalf, for us. Because His justice had to be satisfied. In three hours of darkness on the Cross, He was able to bear the infinite punishment, the eternal punishment of all the collected people who will ever believe, because He is an infinite person with an infinite capacity, and His capacity to bear the punishment had no boundaries. And then there's the flipside of the doctrine of substitution at the end of verse 21, "So that we might become the righteousness of God in Him." Now, listen to this; this must be understood, or you won't get the full picture in this great verse. As a believer are you righteous? Before God, you stand righteous, but are you righteous? No, you're not righteous. So what does this mean? It means that God treats you as if you were righteous. Let's take this a step further. On the cross, God treats His Son as if He lived your life so that He could treat you as if you lived His Son's life. That's how God sees you. He looks at the cross and sees you; He looks at you and sees His Son. That's why there's no condemnation. So, on the cross God treated Jesus as if He lived your life, and now He treats you as if you lived His. That's pretty generous, isn't it? And as ministers of reconciliation, that's the good news we share with sinners. Repent and believe! GTY.org (TM11-7) - The Reconciling Gospel
