In the Bible, a fool is one whose mind-set, values, life, and heart are anti-God.
The fool confidently and brashly proclaims, “There is no God” (Psalm 14:1).
To me, that really adds weight to this:
“Seest thou a man wise in his own conceit? there is more hope of a fool than of him” (Proverbs 26:12).
What a dangerous, soul-threatening thing it is to be so full of myself!
I must be emptied of my self or I can never be filled with God.
