'The wisdom of the wise will be destroed....'
The wea!o" of the worldl s#holar is the !rese"tatio" of e$ide"#e%
a"d b usi"g this wea!o" he will alwas be able to assert himself i"
the world% that is% his wisdom will be irrefutable as soo" as he #a"
!ro$ide the e$ide"#e for the &"owledge he has gai"ed.
B #om!ariso"% s!iritual &"owledge #a""ot be substa"tiated with

to !eo!le% for s!iritual &"owledge is "ot the !rodu#t of a !erso"'s
i"telle#tual thought but the !rodu#t of a lo$i"g heart.
(!iritual &"owledge has therefore "othi"g i" #ommo" with earthl
wisdom a"d #a" therefore "ot be )udged b worldl s#holars either%
for s!iritual &"owledge is e"tirel alie" to them* the are
#om!letel i"#a!able of all #riti#ism as lo"g as the ha$e "ot bee"
a##e!ted i"to the #ir#le of &"owledgeable !eo!le as a result of their
wholehearted a#ti$it of lo$e.
+"d thus the worldl s#holar will "ot be able to use his wisdom as
e$ide"#e i" order to dis!ro$e spiritual truths. For he will ha$e to
admit a short#omi"g% he will ha$e to admit that his worldl
&"owledge is "ot suffi#ie"t i" order to !e"etrate s!iritual areas.
,owe$er% the s!iritual &"owledge gai"ed through a#ti$it of lo$e will
re$o&e earthl wisdom as soo" as this wisdom refers to areas whi#h
lie beo"d the earth.
(!iritual &"owledge will ield differe"t results tha" those gai"ed b

a"d thus !eo!le who ha$e !e"etrated s!iritual &"owledge do "ot
hold worldl &"owledge i" high esteem. The #o"sider it u"sou"d

But% moreo$er% des!ite the !rese"tatio" of e$ide"#e the wisdom of

+"d this is i" a##orda"#e with the worldl resear#her's s!iritual
attitude towards God%
si"#e "o !erso" #a" &"ow the truth without s!iritual e"lighte"me"t*
