Proverbs 9:1 says, Wisdom hath builded her house, she hath hewn out her seven pillars:  Wisdom does not come from or live in man made structures.  Wisdom comes from and abides in God alone.   Everyone is invited to live in the place prepared by the wisdom of God.  The only ones excluded from coming to God and to gain His wisdom are those who refuse to believe.  Verse two states, She hath killed her beasts; she hath mingled her wine; she hath also furnished her table.  Through accepting the wisdom of God, we are invited in to feast with Him.  God prepares the feast for us.  We cannot prepare the feast for God, because everything is already His.  Likewise, we cannot find our own way to God, but must accept His call to come to Him through Christ.  Verse three says, She hath sent forth her maidens: she crieth upon the highest places of the city,  God's wisdom cries out to us from the highest places.  I believe that even though the Holy Spirit lives in us, we are to look up to God for guidance in everyday life.  This is the only way to live in wisdom.  Verse four adds, Whoso is simple, let him turn in hither: as for him that wanteth understanding, she saith to him,   We are all simple in our own ability to understand the ways of God, but if we accept His call to salvation, to enter into the feast of forgiveness and everlasting life that He has prepared, we will not be turned away.  Then, we can begin to gain the wisdom of God.  Verse five invites us, Come, eat of my bread, and drink of the wine which I have mingled.  Though Christ had yet to be born, we know that even before His birth that He was already the only way to salvation.  We also know that shortly before His death, that Jesus, the Christ or Messiah, said His body was the bread of life and His blood, represented by the wine, was the only way to forgiveness.  This verse makes reference to Christ years before He came to earth.  Verse six says, Forsake the foolish, and live; and go in the way of understanding.  The foolish would be anyone who teaches anything that opposes the word of God.  We cannot even attempt to reconcile the two, as for example saying we believe in creative evolution.  We must believe either that God created as His word says He did, or believe in the cosmic explosion as the creative force.  Verse seven declares, He that reproveth a scorner getteth to himself shame: and he that rebuketh a wicked man getteth himself a blot.  I believe that this means that there is no need to argue with those who go out of their way to discredit God.  This doesn't mean that we are not to witness, but that we are not to spend our time arguing with those who not only will not believe, but also deny that God, or His word, even exist.  Only God can change them to make them receptive.  Verse eight adds, Reprove not a scorner, lest he hate thee: rebuke a wise man, and he will love thee.  This is a continuation of the same concept.  Scorners will hate us,, but wise men will welcome correction.  Verse nine concludes, Give instruction to a wise man, and he will be yet wiser: teach a just man, and he will increase in learning.  The wise, those who know God through Christ, will learn from correction and not resent those who offer it.
