46:001:019 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom
of the wise, and
will
bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
46:001:020 Where is the wise? where is the scribe?
where is the disputer
of
this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of
this
world?
46:001:021 For after that in the wisdom of God the
world by wisdom knew
not
God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching
to
save
them that believe.
46:001:022 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom:
46:001:023 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the
Jews a
stumblingblock,
and unto the Greeks foolishness;
46:001:024 But unto them which are called, both Jews
and Greeks, Christ
the
power of God, and the wisdom of God.
46:001:025 Because the foolishness of God is wiser
than men; and the
weakness
of God is stronger than men.
46:001:026 For ye see your calling, brethren, how
that not many wise men
after
the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:
46:001:027 But God hath chosen the foolish things
of the world to
confound
the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the
world
to confound the things which are mighty;
46:001:028 And base things of the world, and things
which are despised,
hath
God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring
to
nought
things that are:
46:001:029 That no flesh should glory in his presence.
46:001:030 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who
of God is made unto us
wisdom,
and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption:
46:001:031 That, according as it is written, He that
glorieth, let him
glory
in the Lord.
46:002:001 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came
not with excellency
of
speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony
of
God.
46:002:002 For I determined not to know any thing
among you, save Jesus
Christ,
and him crucified.
46:002:003 And I was with you in weakness, and in
fear, and in much
trembling.
46:002:004 And my speech and my preaching was not
with enticing words of
man’s
wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
46:002:005 That your faith should not stand in the
wisdom of men, but in
the
power of God.
46:002:006 Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that
are perfect: yet not
the
wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world,
that
come to nought:
46:002:007 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery,
even the hidden
wisdom,
which God ordained before the world unto our glory:
