In Response To: who isn't incompetent? (Dean Trexel)

: I don't understand why this study on (in)competence has been posted here. I
: guess I must be incompetent. But that's O.K. -- we're all incompetent and
: need to trust in Him who is supremely Competent.

: Exodus 31.2-5 (regarding the craftsman who was chosen to create some of the
: temple artifacts) "See, I have chosen Bezalel, son of Uri, the son of
: Hur, of the tribe of Judah, and I have filled him with the Spirit of God,
: with skill, ability and the knowledge in all kinds of crafts-- to make
: artistic designs for work in gold, silver and bronze, to cut and set
: stones, to work in wood, and to engage in all kinds of
: craftsmanship."

: Skill (or competence, if you prefer) is God-given. We are not to gloat over
: our gifts, because others are gifted in ways that we are not.

The only competence we have at all in this life is directly from God!
