April Fool’s Day isn’t a church holiday, but God has lots to say about fools.
We celebrate foolishness:
1. When we neglect God’s Word.
The fear of the LORD is the beginning of knowledge, but fools despise wisdom and instruction.
Proverbs 1:7
2. When we refuse correction.
Do not speak to a fool, for he will scorn the wisdom of your words.
Proverbs 23:9; 17:10
3. When we trust ourselves.
Those who trust in themselves are fools.
Proverbs 28:26
4. When we think we know it all.
Fools find no pleasure in understanding but delight in airing their own opinions.
Proverbs 18:2
5. When we lose control.
A fool is hotheaded and yet feels secure.
Proverbs 14:16
But the most grievous celebration of foolishness is this:
The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.”
Psalm 14:1
Martyred missionary Jim Elliot said it well: "He is no fool who gives what he cannot keep to gain what he cannot lose."
