The Ten Commandments can be thought of as love verbalized and the Royal Law is to love your neighbor as you love yourself. Therefore, as His children we should live and act as one saved by God’s grace knowing that we will be judged based on Christ’s imputed righteousness.
Most all of mankind places a premium on wisdom, defined as factual knowledge effectively applied to everyday life. Because fallen mankind is dead in sin and blind to God’s law and His grace, they are left with using worldly wisdom to work their way into the hereafter.
