GOD HAS MADE FOOLISH THE WISDOM OF THE WORLD

For 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.

For it is written:

'I will Destroy the Wisdom of the Wise [the worldly wise];

The Intelligence of the Intelligent I will Frustrate.' [Isa. 29:14]

WHERE IS THE WISE MAN?

WHERE IS THE SCHOLAR?

WHERE IS THE PHILOSOPHER OF THIS AGE?

HAS GOD NOT MADE FOOLISH THE WISDOM OF THE WORLD?

For since in the Wisdom of God

The World through its Wisdom did not know Him,

God was please through the Foolishness of what was Preached

TO SAVE THOSE WHO BELIEVE.

Jews demand Miraculous Signs and Greeks look for Wisdom,

BUT WE PREACH CHRIST CRUCIFIED;

A Stumbling Block to Jews and Foolishness to Gentiles,

BUT TO THOSE WHOM GOD HAS CALLED,

Both Jews and Greeks,

CHRIST IS THE POWER OF GOD AND THE WISDOM OF GOD.

For the Foolishness of God is Wiser than man's Wisdom,

And the Weakness of God is Stronger than man's Strength.

Brothers, think of what you were when you were Called.

No many of you were Wise by Human Standards;

Not many were Influential;

Not many were of Noble Birth.

BUT GOD CHOSE THE LOWLY THINGS OF THIS WORLD--

The Despised things—and the things that are not--

TO NULLIFY THE THING THAT ARE,

So that No One may boast before Him.

IT IS BECAUSE OF HIM THAT YOU ARE IN CHRIST JESUS,

Who has become for us the Wisdom from God--

That is our Righteousness, Holiness and Redemption.

Therefore as it is written:

'LET HIM WHO BOASTS BOAST IN THE LORD.' [Jer. 9:24]

(1 Corinthians 1:18-31)

God has made Foolish the Wisdom of the World,

Because this life has only One Purpose;

To Determine who will say Yes to God and Christ Jesus.

There is No Other Purpose to this life.

This has been true from the Beginning of TIME.

The Wisdom of the World leads to Strife, War and Failure;

The World is in a Perpetual condition of Strife, War and Failure.

It can be no other way,

Because the World is Under the Control of the Evil One [1 John 5:19],

Who came to Steal, Kill and Destroy [John 10:10];

And to send to Hell as many as he can, which is Most.

The Wisdom of the World leads to Hell.

Only the Wisdom of God, In Christ Jesus, Saves anyone from Hell.

SALVATION IS FOUND IN NO ONE ELSE,

For there is No Other Name under Heaven given to men

By which we Must Be Saved.

(Acts 4:12)

WHAT GOOD IS IT FOR A MAN TO GAIN THE WHOLE WORLD,

YET FORFEIT HIS SOUL?

OR WHAT CAN A MAN GIVE IN EXCHANGE FOR HIS SOUL?

(Mark 8:36, 37)

Today as we look around us we see an America

In Overt Rebellion against God and His Word;

Against the only One Who can bring Righteousness, Peace and Joy;

The only One Who can bring Prosperity.

WHERE IS THE WISDOM IN THIS?

IS THIS NOT BLATANT DECEPTION?

Yes, it is Blatant Deception.

And Scripture tells us how this Ends.

Yet, a Remnant will Overcome this Wicked Word and Satan who Rules it,

By the Blood of the Lamb and the Word of their Testimony,

No loving this life so much as to Shrink from Death. [Rev. 12:11]

These are those who Boast in the Lord

And Put No Confidence in the Flesh, which counts for Nothing.

Christ Jesus warned us all:

Be always on the Watch,

And pray that you will be able to Escape All that is about to happen,

And that you may be able TO STAND before the Son of Man. (Luke 21:36)

Today, the World is raging against God, rushing toward Oblivion. (Psalm 2)

This World in it's present form is passing away. (1 Corinthians 7:31)

America is being ground to powder because of her SIN against God.

Save yourself from this Corrupt Generation! (Acts 2:40)

As God has written, so shall it be! Hallelujah! Maranatha!

Father, Your Kingdom come, Your will be done, on earth as in Heaven!
