                 It is because of Him [God] that you are in Christ Jesus [you be-
                 lieved with Jesus] who has become for us wisdom from God—
                 that is, [being instrumental in] our righteousness, holiness and

                 redemption. (1 Corinthians, 1:30)

                 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord
                 [manifested in the light of God]... (the fruit of the light con-
                 sists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) and find out
                 what pleases the Lord. Have nothing to do with the fruitless
                 deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. (Ephesians, 5:8-11)

                 And this is my prayer: that your love may abound more and
                 more in knowledge and depth of insight, so that you may be
                 able to discern what is best and may be pure and blameless...

                 11)

                 All Scripture is inspired by God and is useful for teaching, re-
                 buking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the
                 man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.
                 (2 Timothy, 3:16-17)

                 God disciplines us for our good... No discipline seems pleasant
                 at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a har-
                 vest of righteousness and peace for those who have been
                 trained by it. Therefore, strengthen your feeble arms and weak
                 knees. "Make level paths for your feet," so that the lame may
                 not be disabled, but rather healed. (Hebrews, 12:11-13)


                 For where you have envy and selfish ambition, there you find
                 disorder and every evil practice. But the wisdom that comes
