The Lord knows that people’s thoughts are pointless.
Indeed, we are being killed all day long because of you. We are thought of as sheep to be slaughtered.
Because of their actions and their thoughts, I am coming to gather the nations of every language. They will come and see my glory.
Scripture says, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise. I will reject the intelligence of intelligent people.”
The world with its wisdom was unable to recognize God in terms of his own wisdom. So God decided to use the nonsense of the Good News we speak to save those who believe.
God’s nonsense is wiser than human wisdom, and God’s weakness is stronger than human strength.
Again Scripture says, “The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are pointless.”
