46:001:021 For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe. 46:001:022 For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after wisdom: 46:001:023 But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness; 46:001:024 But unto them which are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God. 46:001:025 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men. 46:001:026 For ye see your calling, brethren, how that not many wise men after the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called: 46:001:027 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty; 46:001:028 And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are: 46:001:029 That no flesh should glory in his presence. 46:001:030 But of him are ye in Christ Jesus, who of God is made unto us wisdom, and righteousness, and sanctification, and redemption: 46:001:031 That, according as it is written, He that glorieth, let him glory in the Lord. 46:002:001 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. 46:002:002 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 46:002:003 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. 46:002:004 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: 46:002:005 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. 46:002:006 Howbeit we speak wisdom among them that are perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the princes of this world, that come to nought: 46:002:007 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, even the hidden wisdom, which God ordained before the world unto our glory: 46:002:008 Which none of the princes of this world knew: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory. 46:002:009 But as it is written, Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him. 46:002:010 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
