When Joe McGee was with us, he spoke on the four types of people discussed in Proverbs 1:20-22:
1. Wise - They know what is right and correct through understanding, and are able to anticipate what will come.
2. Simple - Sometimes discern what is right and correct, but lack the understanding as to why.
3. Foolish - Unable to discern right from wrong and don't care to until harm comes to them.
4. Scornful - Despise what is proved to be right, good, and beneficial.
Wisdom contains understanding, and understanding contains discernment. Discernment is the distinguishing of what has value.
In Matthew 16:3-12, Jesus warned the disciples of the leaven of the Pharisees. They immediately thought it was because they'd forgotten to take bread. He reminded them of how he'd fed the 5,000 and the 4,000 on another occasion. Once they had the correct understanding, they came to a correct conclusion. He was talking about the doctrine of the Pharisees and Sadducees.
