Is there anyone on facebook bold enough to say they believe they have all knowledge and wisdom apart from God and everyone else?
Is anyone above "rebuke", "correction", "chastisement", "discipline", "admonishment"?
Everyone of us has many things to learn and things to teach, it is best that we move through this life in humility and obedience.
The humble person is teachable the and will move forward in wisdom, the arrogant one is unteachable and regressive.
It is also best to surround ourselves with those who desire God's wisdom more than they wish to be elevated in the eyes of others.
Matthew 23:12 ""Whoever exalts himself shall be humbled; and whoever humbles himself shall be exalted."
James 4:10 "Humble yourselves in the presence of the Lord, and He will exalt you.'
1 Peter 5:6 "Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time he may exalt you,"
Philippians 2:3-11 "Do nothing from rivalry or conceit, but in humility count others more significant than yourselves. Let each of you look not only to his own interests, but also to the interests of others. Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped, but made himself nothing, taking the form of a servant, being born in the likeness of men."
