Love without wisdom and wisdom without love

by | Feb 8, 2023

Making decisions based on data alone without consulting your heart leads to death and genocide. This is because some believe the data doesn’t lie and we must follow “the truth” regardless of people’s feelings. This justifies letting some people suffer or die because the data shows it’s the best option.

Making decisions based on our hearts alone without reviewing the data leads to death and genocide. This is because some believe love is love, we must follow our hearts and do what feels right, even if it means getting rid of those we deem as “not caring enough”.

You see, it’s not good enough to be a caring person, nor an analytical type like myself.

We need something that defines precisely what true love and caring for each other looks like. So that regardless of what the data says, we put loving each other first, and regardless of what we think love looks like, we consult the data to verify it.

I don’t believe you’ll find a better outline of that than the Bible.

The Bible teaches those with big caring hearts that they need to be careful that their hearts do not deceive them. At the same time, it teaches analytical and fact-driven people that seek great wisdom can also be deceived by not being loving enough.

This is why people say “the Bible is so controlling and oppressive” because it doesn’t allow them to “love” how they want to or denies them the think how they want to.

The truth is that God loves every one of us and is just trying to warn us that our sinful nature leads to death, and not just our own.

In fact, He allowed us to prove that by giving us His only begotten son, a flawless man, the wisest of all, and the most caring, and allowed for man’s heart and wisdom to apply the worse torture known to man to Him, so that He could save us from that very thing.

And that’s lost on you because you think you’re loving enough without Jesus, or you’re wise enough to think he’s not real.

And yet, here we are today witnessing the next genocide happen, human trafficking (slavery) is one of the largest industries on the planet, and the most powerful people want to create a one-world government and one-world religion just as the Bible prophesied would happen.

All because sinful man follows their wisdom without hearts, and their hearts without wisdom.

Romans 6:23 (NKJV)
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Deuteronomy 11:16 (NKJV)
“Take heed to yourselves, lest your heart be deceived, and you turn aside and serve other gods and worship them,

Proverbs 1:7 (NKJV)
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of knowledge, But fools despise wisdom and instruction.

Proverbs 18:15 (NKJV)
The heart of the prudent acquires knowledge, And the ear of the wise seeks knowledge.

I Corinthians 8:1 (NKJV)
Now concerning things offered to idols: We know that we all have knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love edifies.

Ephesians 3:19 (NKJV)
to know the love of Christ which passes knowledge; that you may be filled with all the fullness of God.

Job 33:3 (NKJV)
My words come from my upright heart; My lips utter pure knowledge.

Beyond belief

There is no such thing as color when you ask a dog. The land is where you go to die, when you ask a fish. And yet we know both are not true because we have a greater understanding of things than dogs and fish. Are we so ignorant to not believe that things exist beyond...
