Scripture Taken from the Holy BibleScripture Taken from the Holy BibleToday’s New International VersionToday’s New International Version

1 Corinthians 1: 18-25 1 Corinthians 1: 18-25 Christ Crucified Is God’s Power and WisdomChrist Crucified Is God’s Power and Wisdom

18For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 19For

it is written:

“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise;the intelligence of the intelligent I will

frustrate.”

20Where are the wise? Where is the teacher of the law? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the

world? 21For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness

of what was preached to save those who believe.

22Jews demand signs and Greeks look for wisdom, 23but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles,

24but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. 25For the foolishness of

God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength.
