Bible Note: Heard on Christian radio: "Look for people who always seem stuck on one over-emphasized point of theology. This is the person who bangs the proverbial drum for his own little area -- some crazy quirk. And it usually is not some great divine insight. They'd like you to think they're so close to God that they have a great divine insight that no one else has. The fact of the matter is they're seeking a platform for the feeding of their ego. Watch for people with a lack of balance." TEV) (2) A fool does not care whether he understands a thing or not; all he wants to do is show how smart he is. (15) Intelligent people are always eager and ready to learn. (ESV) (2) A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion. ... (15) An intelligent heart acquires knowledge, and the ear of the wise seeks knowledge. (NLT) (2) Fools have no interest in understanding; they only want to air their own opinions. |
