Power And Wisdom

V. 21-23 God wisely planned that the world would not know him through his own wisdom. It pleases God to use the foolish things we preach to save those who believe. Jews require miraculous signs. Greeks look for wisdom. But we preach about Christ and his death on the cross. That is very hard for Jews to accept. And everyone else thinks it's foolish.

Jews and Greeks are always looking for evidence. For a sign. To be able to physically see what they believe. But as Christians we are able to preach about Christs death on the cross.

V. 24-25 But there are those God has chosen, both Jews and others. To them Christ is God's power and God's wisdom. The foolish things of God are wiser than human wisdom. The weakness of God is stronger than human strength.
