Christians. The wisdom of the world is foolishness to Jesus. Do you love your worldly wisdom? ?

It is obvious that the wisdom of the world is not something that Christians should be embracing but many worldly "Christians" do. Here is an example...The world says that mere men have pierced the firmament and have traveled beyond this earth by using their incredible intelligence and "science" ...even today NASA is telling you they sent a rover onto Mars and that it is cruising around. Do you believe this lie? Or is this foolishness? Did men really pierce the firmament with their mind-blowing ingenuity or is this a lie? Or, is Mars really a "planet?" Has the wisdom of the world blinded you? Next they will tell you aliens are real. Will you believe that too.  

Witness this pathetic, lying, worldly comment by a Catholic of high standing  "... there is information coming from another world, and once it is confirmed, it is going to require a re-reading of the Gospel as we know it."

- Fr. Giuseppe Tanzella Nitti

Professor - Vatican University

Another world? Are you sure Giuseppe? Are you lying for Satan?

Is all this worldly wisdom true? Or, does the world and all its geniuses lie. 

If you are holding on to worldly wisdom like the above, you are easily fooled, and will be fooled by Satan when he comes. Beware.  Colossians 2:8 comes to mind here.........................8Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.

Update:

Oleg, I know it is difficult, but please try to answer the question. Your horrific comment implies that I am "raising myself up" which is a lie. The only thing I am "raising up" is Jesus Christ and his truth. I have NO wisdom of my own. But, if you are following the wisdom of the world, then you have the wisdom of the world. It is clear you are professing your own brand of wisdom, which is VANITY.

Update 2:

Entropy...I don't need to tell you, do I?  If you question God you are being foolish. Let Isaiah be your guide...“Woe to him who strives with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth! Shall the clay say to him who forms it, ‘What are you making?’ Or shall your handiwork say, ‘He has no hands’?  The word of God lasts forever, the lies of men perish with them.

Update 3:

Anonymous, Keep reading my questions and comments and you may wake from your Satanically-induced slumber.

Update 4:

Fireball...I am attacking NOBODY. Stop lying. I am warning people that if they mix worldly wisdom with the wisdom of God, they are being deceived, and if they are here to see it, they WILL be deceived by Satan. Being "saved" does not mean you can love the world or the things in the world, or the lies of the lying world.

Update 5:

Oleg, Again you avoid the question and lie. You don't know me, yet you say you don't see the love of Christ in me? Oleg, be honest. I warn.  If you don't want to listen, go back to "playing church." Your arrogance and pride are on display; you want to please men, not God. If you believe in "space" and "other worlds" you are deceived, and you WILL be deceived when Satan comes. You say I am accusing others--another lie. Please answer the question, and stop whining. Do you love the world, or Jesus?

Update 6:

Someone, You are the perfect example of mixing the wisdom of men (in your case, a Freemason criminal, Joseph Smith) with the wisdom of God. You should be ashamed but you are proud. You should be repenting, but instead you dig your heels in. Your religion will be the death of you. Satan has closed your eyes; but Jesus can open them again. Fall on your face and cry to Jesus that he may forgive you, and leave your cult of dead men's bones behind. 

Update 7:

Pope, Please stop being ignorant. You can't mix a little cyanide with your orange juice; one is good, the other a poison...you will die from the cyanide. You can't mix a little Satan with Christ; Satan will take you away. There are NO spinning, whizzing orbs (these come from Kabbala/Jewish mysticism/Satanism...read the book of the Zohar). Incidentally, Michio Kaku believes such garbage. He will tell you where Cosmology comes from. Please repent.

Update 8:

? Stop talking gibberish and accusing me while pretending to be righteous. You accuse me in your own worldly wisdom and try to use Isaiah as your cover? How absurd! I am judging no-one but you say I am. How ignorant. You are literally lying before Jesus, who is watching. Why lie? Just answer my simple question. Do you love the world or Jesus? My question is asking you to examine yourself, whether you are in the faith; and you DON'T like it.

    Worldly wisdom is not really wisdom at all. It is just vanity, which means nothing.

    True wisdom comes from God and that wisdom comes with truth and knowledge.

    If a person truly wants wisdom, seek and ask God.

    1 Corinthians 3:19 “For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness.”

    James 3:17 “But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.”

    Proverbs 2:6 “For the LORD giveth wisdom: out of his mouth cometh knowledge and understanding.”

    Isaiah teaches that a mature believer views himself as a related helper of those in error and not as their judge who vilifies them from an emotional distance or their slave who fears their characteristics

    Luke 2

    52 And Jesus increased in wisdom and stature, and in favour with God and man.

    2 Nephi 9

    28 O that cunning plan of the evil one! O the vainness, and the frailties, and the foolishness of men! When they are learned they think they are wise, and they hearken not unto the counsel of God, for they set it aside, supposing they know of themselves, wherefore, their wisdom is foolishness and it profiteth them not. And they shall perish.

    29 But to be learned is good if they hearken unto the counsels of God.

    There was this guy (Christian or not), David J Stewart, who was also ranting a lot on the internet - bashing other Christians and raising himself up, that he can sin and be forgiven, until he was caught doing crimes himself and judged by authorities.

    The last i've read about him - he claimed on his blog he did not go to the church from 2014.

    Do not follow his path. Follow Lord Jesus Christ and His example.

    REPLY: I do not know you, who you are and how exactly are you following Christ in real life. You could be an unbelieving troll, pretending to be a crazy preacher (as many are). I do not see the love of Christ in you - so i have no reason to trust you, as much as i trust other Christians i see personally in real life. So stop posting huge rants like many false teachers do - to cover their sins by accusing others - but start showing the love of Christ in deed, then people would pay attention to your words. Better little talk with God's love and peace, than a lot of empty words filled with hate.

    Here's my question to you - How do you know?  How do you know what you think you know?

    With science, we know because there is empirical testing.  We have organizations with long track records of taking things that used to be miracles like curing certain diseases or flying, and makes them mundane.  We can see the fruits of their process.  So we have REASON to trust the process.

    With religion, not ONE claimed miracle is ever performed in front of us.  We are told there is a book that documents past miracles...but anyone could write such a book.  How do you know it's real?  How is this book credible?  Does it perform miracles on demand like science?  No.  On the contrary, for EVEN ASKING you are labelled a heretic and told that you have sinned.  Why would a God that allegedly created you as a thinking and questioning being be upset with you thinking and questioning?
