Wise to Good, Simple to Evil.

Are we wise to that which is good?
Are we simple concerning evil?

Rom 16:19  For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil. 

The Spirit will make us wise.

Eph 1:17  That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of him

We need to be wise to the good we find in our Lord and Savior. We must comprehend through the Spirit that our Savior is everything. Good can ONLY come from our Savior. If we find goodness in anything other than our Savior and what He leads us too, is it really good? When we have a good time with others is it because our Lord is guiding us? Truly can the Lord join in with us in all we do? If CHRIST is in us, truly a part of us, we need to have the wisdom to comprehend all that means. Our life needs to be spend reveling in this relationship with our Savior.

Too often people spend a lot of time involved with evil, seeking evil, when truthfully we need to be simple concerning evil, not wise to is. We don't need to comprehend evil, we don't need to make evil a part of our lives. We never need to study evil.

Our study should be this--

2Ti_2:15  Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

Jas 3:13  Who is a wise man and endued with knowledge among you? let him shew out of a good conversation his works with meekness of wisdom. 
Jas 3:14  But if ye have bitter envying and strife in your hearts, glory not, and lie not against the truth. 
Jas 3:15  This wisdom descendeth not from above, but is earthly, sensual, devilish. 
Jas 3:16  For where envying and strife is, there is confusion and every evil work. 
Jas 3:17  But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy. 
Jas 3:18  And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace. 

Wise to that which is good--- Please, Lord, to this end may we seek to live in You, the Holy Spirit guiding us always!
