Full and/or Fool?

"But to those called by God to salvation, both Jews and Gentiles, Christ is the might power of God and the wonderful Wisdom of God." 1 Corinthians 1:24. And if God and Christ and the Holy Spirit are ONE then God is Wisdom. And if we are without wisdom we are without God, and likewise, if we are without God we are without Wisdom. We have to seek after Christ to become one with him to have the power and wisdom that he gives.
When we are following the ways of the World we are trusting in the ways of the Devil and his worldly wisdom. We become foolish because we believe these things matter and ultimately they will lead to our death. When we are Full of the World we are made a FOOL of the World because a FOOL lacks Wisdom. However, the Wisdom of God calls out to all of us, urging us away from earthly wisdom, our media driven lives, and calls us to lead a life of eternal significance. "She has sent her servants to invite everyone to come. She calls out from the heights overlooking the city. 'Come home with me,' she urges the simple. To those without good judgement, she says, 'Come, eat my food, and drink the wine I have mixed. Leave your foolish ways behind, and begin to live; learn how to be wise." Proverbs 9:3-6. She is Wisdom, and she is calling us to her home. Wisdom is God, and He is calling us up to Heaven. If we stay foolish and don't seek His Wisdom we are forfeiting our entrance into His Home.
We as a people have strayed too long. We have grown too accustomed to the evil, foolish ways of the world which lead us to our death, and Christ is still calling us home. Jesus has not given up on us. He has not yet returned. Don't you want to live a life that will have an eternal meaning, that is also fulfilling, and that will leave a legacy? Or do you wish to be insignificant, just like everyone else, trying to be the next big thing, then die and forever be condemned? The riches you have gained in this world will still be here on earth when you die. All that goes with you in death is you soul, and if you don't have Wisdom, you don't have Christ, and if Christ isn't living within you there is no way to get into heaven. "Jesus told them, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through me." John 14:6. He is the only way. Seek Wisdom! Seek God!
