“For Christ did not send me to baptize but to preach the gospel, and not with words of eloquent wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power. For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and the discernment of the discerning I will thwart.” 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?”
‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭1:17-20‬ ‭ESV‬‬

All,This stands out because Paul says, “For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.” Can you imagine a day without the knowledge of Christ’s resurrection? With our lives dependent on His, we have a inner peace and joy. If one isn’t dependent on Christ, what are they dependent on? The world is full of countless idols for people to worship if they don’t worship Christ. Please pray that we and our friends help our unbelieving friends know the fullness of Christ. Please pray for the victims of sex trafficking.
