Such a disposition is essential to those who would receive the wisdom which comes from above. They must have a humble appreciation of their own
deficiencies and lack of wisdom, else they cannot receive freely,
heartily, the wisdom which God is pleased to grant in the
present time only to those who are in the attitude of
heart to receive it. And it will be seen also that this
humility of mind is essential as a basis for the spirit
of a sound mind, for who is in a proper condition to
think justly, reasonably, impartially, except first of
all he have a humble disposition? Hence we must agree that humility
is a primary element in the disposition or mind of Christ. |
