Free Heart, Free Mind, Free Spirit is a Free Soul was an expression from the manuscript of Dr. Nicolas Kimaz N.D. and below are a few more excerpts and quotes that Dr. Nic included to help make his case. Overall the story is an extremely rich and candid biography of the most extraordinary life.
The book of Proverbs is perhaps the best place in the Bible to learn of biblical wisdom. Proverbs 1:7 speaks of both biblical knowledge and wisdom: “The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, / but fools despise wisdom and instruction.”To fear the Lord is to start on the path to knowledge, and God can then begin to provide us with wisdom through Christ, who the Bible says is wisdom itself: “It is because of him that you are in Christ Jesus, who has become for us wisdom from God—that is, our righteousness, holiness and redemption” (1 Corinthians 1:30). Ironically, the entire 31 Chapters of Proverbs is summed up in its last few verses where the writer gives proper homage and describes the “wise woman” in verses 10-31, but it is the last 2 verses that are most poignant and relevant, “… but a woman who fears the Lord, she shall be praised. Give her the product of her hands and let her works praise her in the gates.”
But the bottom line is, my friend, the real battle is not with the world, but is with yourself. This a war that has been going on forever and you always have decisions to make, decisions about whose side you are going to take in that war inside you, the corrupt spirit or the truthful spirit. Is that decision going to be based on knowledge, or wisdom?
Jesus Himself said, “These things I have spoken to you that in Me you may have peace. In the world you have tribulation, but take courage, I have overcome the world.” John 16:33
“Whoever is full of wisdom is naturally compassionate;in fact we recognize that someone has gained spiritual wisdom by seeing their compassionate behavior . . . Individuals and countries with power need to develop wisdom and compassion, for without these attributes, there is a danger that the power will be used to oppress and exploit others.”― Ravi Ravindra
