But of Him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption. – 1 Corinthians 1:30
It is always wisest to act in any condition as Jesus would have acted, supposing Him to have been in that condition. Never did He temporise. Principle guided Him, not fashion nor personal advantage. You shall never be a fool if you follow Christ, except in the estimation of fools; and who wishes to be wise in a fool’s esteem? But sometimes it may be said: “To do as Christ would have done would involve me in present difficulty or loss.” It is true; but there is no man that loseth aught in this life for Christ’s sake who shall remain a loser, for he shall receive tenfold in this life, and in the world to come life everlasting. The wisest action is not always the most pecuniarily profitable. It is wise sometimes for men to be poor, ay, even to lose their lives. Truest wisdom-not sham wisdom, not temporary wisdom-you shall manifest by following the example of Christ, though it lead you to prison or to death. His teachings and His example, together, will give you the wisdom which cometh from above.
Above all, if you have the Redeemer’s presence, He will be made of God unto you wisdom in a very remarkable sense. Never forget or doubt that Jesus is still with His people. They who know how to enter into the secret place of the tabernacles of the Most High, find Him still at the mercy-seat. He feedeth among the lilies, and they who know the lilies know where to find Him; and those who live with Him, and catch His spirit, have their garments perfumed as His are with myrrh, and aloes, and cassia. These may be thought to be mad by some, and others may call them fanatical enthusiasts; but these are the wisest of mankind. O happy men that live at the gates of Heaven while yet on earth; that sit at the feet of the blessed in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus while they are toiling along through the pilgrimage of this life! This is to be wise, to have Christ’s teaching, Christ’s example and above all, Christ’s presence; so may the poorest find the Lord Jesus made of God unto them wisdom. ~ C.H. Spurgeon
