For
the message about the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing,
but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is
written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and I will thwart the
cleverness of the intelligent.” Where is the wise man? Where is the
expert in the Mosaic law? Where is the debater of this age? Has God not
made the wisdom of the world foolish? For since in the wisdom of God
the world by its wisdom did not know God, God was pleased to save those
who believe by the foolishness of preaching. -1 Corinthians 1:18-21
