1 Corinthians 1:21-25 Devotionals, Articles & Bible Study

²¹For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know Him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe.

          22Jews demand signs and Greeks search for wisdom,
          23but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles,
          24but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.

²⁵For the foolishness of God is wiser than man’s wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man’s strength.
