• I Corinthians 1:17-20 - For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect. For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man.
• I Corinthians 3:19, 20 - For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God. For it is written, He taketh the wise in their own craftiness...
