"The wisdom of this world is foolishness with God."

?????

1 Cor 3:19

Trust in Jehovah as the End Draws Near!

?????

We cling to Jehovah when we heed his Word, which often runs contrary to human wisdom. (Ps. 73:23, 24) 

?????

For instance, people influenced by human wisdom may say: ‘You have only one life; make the most of it.’ ‘Pursue a good career.’ ‘Make a lot of money.’ ‘Buy this, buy that.’ ‘Travel; enjoy the world.’ Godly wisdom, on the other hand, is in line with the advice: “[Let] those making use of the world [be] as those not using it to the full; for the scene of this world is changing.” (1 Cor. 7:31) 

?????

Likewise, Jesus exhorts us always to put Kingdom interests first and thereby store up “treasures in heaven,” where they will be absolutely secure.—Matt. 6:19, 20

?????

Does your attitude toward “the world” and “the things in the world” reflect your complete trust in God? (1 John 2:15-17) 

?????

Are spiritual riches and privileges of Kingdom service more desirable and important to you than the things the world offers? (Phil. 3:8) Do you strive to maintain a ‘simple eye’? (Matt. 6:22)  ?

?????

Of course, God does not want you to be imprudent or irresponsible, especially if you have a family to care for. (1 Tim. 5:8) 

?????

But he does expect his servants to trust fully in him—not in Satan’s dying world.—Heb. 13:5.
