    25Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

    26For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called:

    27But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God has chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

    28And base things of the world, and things which are despised, God has chosen, yea, and things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are:

    29That no flesh should glory in his presence.

    30But of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God—and righteousness and sanctification and redemption—

    4And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,

    5that your faith should not rest in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

    6However, we speak wisdom among those who are mature, yet not the wisdom of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who are coming to nothing.

    7But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory,

    8which none of the rulers of this world knew; for had they known, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
