What kind of wisdom do you have?

1 Corinthians 8:1
[ Food Sacrificed to Idols ] Now about food sacrificed to idols: We know that we all possess knowledge. Knowledge puffs up, but love builds up.

James 3:13-17 (New International Version)

13Who is wise and understanding among you? Let him show it by his good life, by deeds done in the humility that comes from wisdom. 14But if you harbor bitter envy and selfish ambition in your hearts, do not boast about it or deny the truth.15Such "wisdom" does not come down from heaven but is earthly, unspiritual, of the devil. 16For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find disorder and every evil practice.17But the wisdom that comes from heaven is first of all pure; then peace-loving, considerate, submissive, full of mercy and good fruit, impartial and sincere.

If you think you are wise,think about it again. If you think you know everything, think again. Judge yourself so as to save yourself.
