Despite all of our advancements in science and medicine, there is no known human cure for leprosy. It can now be arrested, but not cured. The disease spreads through the body by a rotting process-first it destroys the nerves; gradually it spreads until it hits a vital part of the body and kills. And so it is with sin-it attacks the spirit’s nerve system so that you are being destroyed without even realizing it. One tolerated area of sin will spread until it blights your whole life-yet you’re unconscious of what it is doing to you.
The world in which we live places great value on knowledge. But people don’t always strive to know the most important things. The truth is you may be extremely knowledgeable about insects, or stars, or the sciences. You may be very wise about those sorts of things and people might really admire you for that knowledge. That’s all well and good, but if you don’t have the wisdom of God, you’re missing the most important knowledge a man can ever hope to attain.
