VERSE:
Colossians 2:2-3
2 My goal is that they may be encouraged in heart and united in love, so that they may have the full riches of complete understanding, in order that they may know the mystery of God, namely, Christ, 3 in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge.
LESSON:
Wisdom - Wisdom through Jesus Christ!
This verse recounts the writer's (Paul's) hope and prayer for the people at Colosse (as well as Christian Believers everywhere). He describes the "...treasures of wisdom and knowledge..." as being "hidden treasures" from God received through Jesus Christ. So in one respect...Godly wisdom is having "...full riches of complete understanding..." in order to know "...the mystery of God...". Godly wisdom...is knowing and living by God's ways. Our goal in life should be to know the things of God...and to live by them.
