They were all shouting together, “The Lamb who was put to death is worthy to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise!”
However, the gift is not like the crime. If many died because of one man's transgression, how much more abundant is the gift of God's grace, which is offered to many by one man, Jesus Christ.
No, we share God’s wisdom, which is a mystery that has been hidden until now. But before time began, God planned that this wisdom would bring us heavenly glory.
God’s wisdom and knowledge are so profoundly rich! We can’t understand how he reaches such wise decisions! We can’t figure out how he deals with people so well!
But when the Son of Man came, he did eat and drink the way most people do, and you said, ‘He’s always eating and drinking too much. He’s a friend of tax collectors and “sinners.” ’ But wisdom is proved right by its own actions.”
