FoolishnessTriumphant
The message of the cross is foolish to
those who are headed for destruction!
But we who are being saved know it is
the very power of God. 1 Corinthians
1 :18
As the Scriptures say,
“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise
and discard the intelligence of the
intelligent.”
1 Corinthians
1 :19
So where does this leave the
philosophers, the scholars, and the
world’s brilliant debaters? God has made
the wisdom of this world look foolish.
1 Corinthians
1 :20
Since God in his wisdom saw to it that the
world would never know him through
human wisdom, he has used our foolish
preaching to save those who believe.
1 Corinthians
1 :21
