Knowledge, wisdom and love

From today's reading: Your word is a lantern to my feet, and a light upon my path. Psalm 119:105 and Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up. 1 Corinthians 8:1b

I want to repeat something that I said on Sunday, All the laws of God, and indeed all of scripture, is to be seen and understood through the lens that Jesus provides for us when he says, "This is the first and greatest commandment; love the Lord your God with all your heart and all you soul and all your mind and all your strength. And the second is like it; love your neighbor as yourself. On these two commandments hang all the law and prophets."

You can have all the knowledge there is and through the knowledge be technically right at every turn, but if that knowledge is not applied with love, then all the knowledge in the world is worth nothing. Knowledge in itself is good to have, but it is wisdom that allows us to apply that knowledge with love so that God's glory is always shown through our actions.
