1 Corinthians 1:18-20
Disciples’ Literal New Testament
For God Intends The Gospel To Be Both Foolishness And Powerful
18 For the speech[a] of the cross is foolishness to the ones perishing, but is the power of God to us being saved. 19 For it has been written [in Isa 29:14]: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise ones, and I will set-aside the intelligence[b] of the intelligent ones”. 20 Where is the wise one? Where is the scribe[c]? Where is the debater of this age? Did not God make-foolish the wisdom of the world?
