Sadly, this is a very easy comment to pass by yet it is the root of the human condition and the most common error that Christians make. We study, we experience, we listen to teaching and rather than all of this confirming that we do not know anything and need to take things to God, it seems instead to do the opposite. We become more independent in our knowledge rather than more God-dependent.
It is said that knowledge puffs up where love builds up so we need to ensure that we have love in our lifestyle and also that knowledge only makes us more aware of our need for God and the way he works in our lives - learning how to listen - rather than learning what to do as if a Christian walk is merely a recipe or set of instructions.
