My Pastor Ronald McCrary of New Life Missionary Baptist Church recently taught in Bible study that the Greek word for wisdom is Sophia and implies the feminine gender which says a lot about us men:)
Now I realize from reading Proverbs daily that the opposite of wisdom is anti-wisdom which is a strange woman or woman separated from God.
There are numerous verses of Scripture (especially within Proverbs) mentioning the strange woman directly and indirectly. The strange woman is the opponent of the virtuous woman.
Wisdom desires to create a soul tie to God with our spirit directly just as the strange woman wants to separate us from God by a direct, physical connection often initiated on an emotional and verbal level.
Today I learned firsthand at Wal-Mart that COUGARS ARE THE NEW CONSTRUCTION WORKERS!
COUGARS ARE STRANGE WOMEN:)
The song "She's Strange" by one of my favorite funk groups Cameo now makes even more perfect sense:)
Very little was verbally said to me while I am rather scratched up by the stalking glances I received:)
I would have felt safer in a bad neighborhood while counting my money in a flashy manner before walking down an alley on the first of the month:)
There is something within an ice cold, lusty stare that says, "I can take him" like the lions and hyenas silently give the wildebeests in Africa before beginning the often lethal chase that says run without asking any questions or for directions!
The moral of the lesson is to remember that it is not enough to think that one is immune and secure when there are many others more than ready, willing, and able to spring a trap upon one without any warning!
The Word of God gives us plenty of warnings of wisdom, so anyone would be foolish to disregard what has been proven to work for centuries and forever!
Proverbs 6:23-25 states:
23 For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life:
24 To keep thee from the evil woman, from the flattery of the tongue of a strange woman.
25 Lust not after her beauty in thine heart; neither let her take thee with her eyelids.
Be blessed!!
