Where is the wise? where is the Scribe? where is the disputer of this world? Hath not God made foolish the wisedome of this world?

For after that, in the wisedom of God, the world by wisedome knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishnesse of preaching, to saue them that beleeue.

But vnto them which are called, both Iewes and Greekes, Christ, the power of God, & the wisedome of God.

Because the foolishnesse of God is wiser then men: and the weakenesse of God is stronger then men.

But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world, to confound the wise: and God hath chosen the weake things of the world, to confound the things which are mighty:

And base things of the world, and things which are despised, hath God chosen, yea and things which are not, to bring to nought things that are,

Knowe yee not that yee are the Temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
