What wisdom do they have?


"How can you say, ‘We are wise, And the law of the LORD is with us’? Look, the false pen of the scribe certainly works falsehood. The wise men are ashamed, They are dismayed and taken. Behold, they have rejected the word of the LORD; So what wisdom do they have?”
Jeremiah 8:8-9
The scribes knew the scriptures or "the law of the Lord" inside-out, however it was merely head knowledge. They knew every detail, every promise and every scripture of what was to come and all the glory that would be revealed to them. Yet, in their hearts they did not even recognize Him! As the Messiah stood before them, as they could touch Him, hear Him and behold all His glory they did not even recognize it was Him! Even worse they DENIED and REJECTED Him. All their knowledge was empty because it never moved from their heads to their hearts in belief.
This is where all power comes from. The path from your head to your heart and the demonstration of your heart through your life! When all the knowledge of the scriptures are applied to your heart it transforms your walk...this is true revelation of Jesus-this is true wisdom. Words and knowledge are so very empty unless they penetrate your heart and causes your life to transform into His image!
Let us not be scribes...
