(Lesson 4769) (02-24-25) 1st Corinthians 1:18-19 

   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.“ 

 

   In today’s quote, Paul explained that the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are lost and without faith, but to those who are saved and sealed by the Holy Spirit, through faith, it is the power of God. He emphasized that humanity fails to comprehend God's plan of salvation, quoting Scripture to show that God will destroy the wisdom of the wise and bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent. Paul highlighted that true salvation comes through faith in Christ, not through worldly wisdom or human reasoning.~
