Be a Fool for Christ's Sake

Paul Gough

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. But we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles. The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God but considers them foolishness, and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit. For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength. For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe.
