“For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.” [1]
It pleases God by the foolishness of preaching to save souls that believe. [2]
Preach Christ crucified! Christ is the power and wisdom of God to them which are called. [3]
Not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called. God has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise. God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty. God has chosen base things of the world, and things which are despised, yes, and things which are not, to bring to naught things that are: so that no flesh should glory in His presence, so that He that glories, let him glory in the Lord. [3]
Yes, Lord Jesus, may it be so in our lives by the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives.
