Now I'm always ready to acknowledge achievement, as you know, which in this case is your mastery of the second and third categories mentioned. (These are invariably taught where Scripture is disregarded.) Mrs White, having read God's material and understood it, is neither mad nor foolish. But understanding the words is not the same as believing them. For example:
Eight words easy enough to understand. Do I believe them? No. Understanding and believing the wisdom literature doesn't produce serenity but vexation of spirit. Reading on:
Code:
The King of England lives on the moon.
For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow. I said in mine heart, Go to now, I will prove thee with mirth, therefore enjoy pleasure: and, behold, this also is vanity. I said of laughter, It is mad: and of mirth, What doeth it?
God wants us to use reason* to understand the veracity of Scripture and in particular the enormity of sin. Reason, understanding, wisdom, their association with vexation of spirit, grief and sorrow is explicit. Even the attempt to separate knowledge from folly will have this effect. God provides a second group however, because He loves us, comprising madness, folly, mirth, pleasure and laughter. And again, they are associated with insanity, ineffectiveness and truly a false sense of security. The pictures you selected exemplify both mental states: which one better depicts an appreciation of God's perspective as explained in Ecclesiastes?
Nobody has to believe what God teaches. But to believe or reject His message, first you need to know what it is. I hope this is helpful.
* Isaiah 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the LORD: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.


ish Cathyolick prayers for my well-being!
knows that a devout,
lady, such as myself, is in no need of your Papal travesties! If anything, you should be praying that
will forgive you for associating with such sinful nonsense. Kindly repent — whilst you still have time!
bless you richly, dear boy, as you continue your soul-saving crusades down on Gay Street in New York! Speaking of that, I have found some disgusting homersexualists that you might like to minister to. As you shall see in the video clip below, these
-bound sinners would benefit from your ministerial duties!
