“Where is the one who is wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach to save those who believe. For Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles, but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.”
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭1:20-25‬ ‭ESV‬‬

All,

This stands out because Paul says, “but we preach Christ crucified”.  Is there anything we can add to Christ being crucified?  Watch out if you think there is. The good news is that he was crucified to save us eternally. We didn’t and can’t do anything but believe. Please pray that we and our friends “believe” Christ and not just “believe in” Christ. Please pray for CLC.
