In some cases the wise men of their day were, in fact, “suppressing the truth ” and ignoring the evidence around them that there is a God. “ Although asserting they were wise, they became foolish, ” wrote the apostle Paul.
देवाची ‘ उत्तम, ग्रहणीय व परिपूर्ण इच्छा काय हे समजून घेण्याकरता ’ प्रेषित पौलाने सहख्रिश्‍चनांना आपल्या ‘ तर्कशक्‍तीचा ’ (NW) पुरेपूर उपयोग करण्यास सांगितले. — रोमकर १२: १, २.
