18 Christ Is God’s Power and Wisdom The teaching about the cross seems foolish to those who are lost. But to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

19 It is written in the Scriptures: “I will cause the wise men to lose their wisdom. I will make the wise men unable to understand.”

20 Where is the wise person? Where is the educated person? Where is the philosopher of our times? God has made the wisdom of the world foolish.
