As I was driving to work, I was listening to the bible
being read to me from my bible App on my cell phone, and these verses in Frist
Corinthians just jumped out at me and God Spoke to heart and mind. 1Cor 1:17-
31 (NAS is great commentary for KJV)
For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospel, not
in [l]cleverness
of speech, so that the cross of Christ would not be made void.
18 For the
word of the cross is foolishness to those who [m]are
perishing, but to us who [n]are being
saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written,
“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise,
And the cleverness of the clever I will set aside.”
And the cleverness of the clever I will set aside.”
20 Where is
the wise man? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has
not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? 21 For since in the wisdom of
God the world through its wisdom did not come to know
God, God was well-pleased through the foolishness of the [o]message
preached to save those who believe. 22 For indeed Jews ask
for [p]signs and
Greeks search for wisdom; 23 but we preach [q]Christ
crucified, to Jews a stumbling block and to Gentiles foolishness, 24 but to those who are the
called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom
of God. 25 Because
the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is
stronger than men.
26 For [r]consider
your calling, brethren, that there were not many wise according to [s]the
flesh, not many mighty, not many noble; 27 but God has chosen the
foolish things of the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak
things of the world to shame the things which are strong, 28 and the base things of the
world and the despised God has chosen, the things that are not, so that He
may nullify the things that are, 29 so that no [t]man may
boast before God. 30 But [u]by His
doing you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, [v]and righteousness
and sanctification, and redemption, 31 so that, just as it is
written, “Let him who boasts, boast in
the Lord.
Word of God speak!!
