Wisdom & Power
John RothJanuary 12, 202540:06
1 Corinthians 1: 1 - 9True greatness comes not from human achievement or status but from humble self-giving that looks like a cross, and God's way up is his way down to us. Human wisdom and power routinely fail to change hearts, end divisions, or fix our deepest brokenness, so God chooses what the world calls foolish and weak to shame the proud and nullify worldly systems. No one earns standing before God, boasting is misplaced, and our identity, righteousness, and hope are found only in Christ who turns weakness into saving power.
