1 Corinthians 1:18
| ← 1 Corinthians 1:17 | 1 Corinthians 1:18 (KJV) | 1 Corinthians 1:19 → |
|---|---|---|
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.
|
For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
