1 Corinthians 1:19-25

19For it is written: “1I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And the understanding of those who have understanding, I will confound.” 202Where is the wise person? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of 3this age? Has God not 4made foolish the wisdom of 5the world? 21For since in the wisdom of God 6the world through its wisdom did not come to know God, 7God 8was pleased through the 9foolishness of the 10message preached to 11save those who believe. 22For indeed 12Jews ask for 13signs and Greeks search for wisdom; 23but we preach 1415Christ crucified, 16to Jews a stumbling block, and to Gentiles 17foolishness, 24but to those who are 18the called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ 19the power of God and 20the wisdom of God. 25For the 21foolishness of God is wiser than mankind, and 22the weakness of God is stronger than mankind.
