Ecclesiastes 7:12
12 Wisdom and money can get you almost anything, but only wisdom can save your life.
LESSON:
Money - Would your rather have wisdom or money?
This verse makes the argument clear...at least from the Biblical perspective. Having wisdom and money is good..."...but only wisdom can save your life...". In a physical world sense...having wisdom can help you to avoid some of the many dangers of modern life that can ruin...or even end your life. Drugs, Drinking, Smoking, over-eating...etc. In the spiritual world sense...having wisdom may lead you to choose accepting Jesus as your LORD and savior and of serving God...rather than rejecting both. It is up to all of us. Would we rather have wisdom...or money?
