Luke 16:4
Proverbs 30:9
So that I will not be full and deny You and say, “Who is the Lord?”
Or that I will not be poor and steal,
And so profane the name of my God.
Jeremiah 4:22
“For My people are stupid and foolish,” [says the Lord to Jeremiah];
“They do not know Me;
They are foolish children
And have no understanding.
They are shrewd [enough] to do evil,
But they do not know [how] to do good.”
James 3:15
This [superficial] wisdom is not that which comes down from above, but is earthly (secular), natural (unspiritual), even demonic.
