rkjnt 1Corinthians:1:18-2:5
rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:18 @ For the preaching of the cross is to those who are perishing foolishness; but to those of us who are being saved it is the power of God.
rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:19 @ For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and frustrate the cleverness of the clever.
rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:20 @ Where is the wise man? where is the scribe? where is the debater of this age? has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:21 @ For since, in the wisdom of God, the world by its wisdom did not come to know God, it pleased God through the foolishness of our preaching to save those who believe.
rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:22 @ For Jews require a sign, and Greeks seek after wisdom:
rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:23 @ But we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block, and to the Greeks foolishness;
rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:24 @ But to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.
rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:25 @ Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:26 @ For consider your calling, brethren: that not many were wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble:
rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:27 @ But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to shame the things which are mighty;
rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:28 @ And God has chosen base things of the world, and things which are despised, and things which are not, to reduce to nothing things that are:
rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:29 @ That no flesh should boast in his presence.
rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:30 @ But because of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God, and righteousness, and holiness, and redemption:
rkjnt@1Corinthians:1:31 @ So that, just as it is written, Let him who boasts, boast in the Lord.
rkjnt@1Corinthians:2:1 @ And when I came to you, brethren, I did not come with lofty speech or wisdom as I declared to you the testimony of God.
rkjnt@1Corinthians:2:2 @ For I determined not to know anything among you, except Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
rkjnt@1Corinthians:2:3 @ And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.
rkjnt@1Corinthians:2:4 @ And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
rkjnt@1Corinthians:2:5 @ That your faith should not rest on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.
