The Wisdom of God

Passage: 1 Corinthians 1:18– 2:16
Text: 1 Corinthians 1:18-2:16
Title: The Wisdom of God
Paul contrasts the wisdom of the world with the wisdom of God.
Worldy wisdom: Based on man's understanding, abilities, performance, and logic (1 Cor. 1:21,23,24,40.
God's wisdom: The Cross of Christ (1 Cor. 1:18).
The power of God is found in the cross of Christ (1 Cor. 1:18, 24).
The wisdom of God recognizes we are nothing without Christ and we boast in Him alone (1 Cor. 1:29-30).
The cross of Christ is the wisdom and power of God.
