The Foolish Wisdom and Weak Power of God P1

At the end of the day, there is an emphatic opposition between human wisdom and the message of the cross. Here we see that the gospel will always be offensive, or stupid, or just plain irrelevant and unhelpful in the eyes of the world. But here we also see that to those who are being saved, to those who are called by God, here is nothing more wise and more powerful as the preaching of Christ and Him crucified. For in the Christian life, we never move beyond the gospel, as if the gospel is just for the forgiveness of sin where we then progress on to better things. For to move beyond the gospel is to move beyond Christ Himself.
