1 Corinthians 1:18-25 - Christ Crucified, The Power And Wisdom Of God
18 For the word of the cross is to those who are perishing, foolishness; but to those who are being saved, it is the power of God. 19 For it has been written, "I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the discernment of the discerning will I set aside."
20 Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Hath not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? 21 For, since in the wisdom of God, the world through its wisdom knew not God, God was pleased through the foolishness of preaching to save those who believe; 22 seeing that both Jews ask for signs, and Greeks seek after wisdom; 23 but we preach Christ crucified; to the Jews, a stumbling-block, and to the gentiles foolishness; 24 but to those who are 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.
