- Christ: Wisdom and Power of God
For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God . For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this world? Hath not God made foolish the wisdom of the world ? 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 .
1 Cor 1: 18 - 21
- The Secret Plan of God
But as it is written, Eye has not seen, nor ear heard , neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God has prepared for them that love him. But God has revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searches all things ,yea , the deep things of God . For what man knows the things of a man, except the spirit of man which is in him? Even so the things of God no man knows , but the spirit of God. Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is from God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God. Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teaches, but which the Holy Ghost teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual. But the natural man receives not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned. But he that is spiritual judges all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. 1 Cor 2: 9 - 14
