Sometimes, knowledge makes you more depressed. Solomon wrote: “I said in my heart, “I have acquired great wisdom, surpassing all who were over Jerusalem before me, and my heart has had great experience of wisdom and knowledge.” And I applied my heart to know wisdom and to know madness and folly. I perceived that this also is but a striving after wind. For in much wisdom is much vexation, and he who increases knowledge increases sorrow” (Ecclesiastes 1:16-18).
The more I learn about economics, the more worried I get about the direction of our country. Knowledge may be power, but it also brings some responsibility – or at least the feeling that you are responsible to do something.

You see, no one can be saved “happy in their stupidity”. First, “without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he exists” (Hebrews 11:6). Secondly, “without faith it is impossible to please him, for whoever would draw near to God must believe that he rewards those who seek him” (Hebrews 11:6).
We simply cannot be saved, being stupid. We may be happy, but we’ll be “happy” in the devil’s presence. Can we take this message to the lost in 2013?
