Описание: This sermon turns our understanding of blessing and boasting completely upside down, revealing a God who delights in choosing what the world considers foolish, weak, and lowly. In 1 Corinthians 1:26-31, we're confronted with a beautiful paradox: our greatest boast isn't in our wisdom, strength, or status, but in Christ alone, who became our righteousness, sanctification, and redemption. The sermon walks us through biblical examples that demonstrate God's upside-down kingdom—Gideon's 300 soldiers defeating countless Midianites, the King of Kings born and laid in a manger, Jesus defeating death and hell by dying on a cross, and then rising. These examples reveal a pattern of how God works in our lives. We may not feel blessed when surrounded by difficulty, hunger, or grief, yet the Lord protects and blesses in ways that transcend our circumstances. The message of the cross looks like foolishness to a perishing world, but to us being saved, it is the very power of God. When we consider our call to faith, we see kindness, justice and righteousness. In mercy and kindness God chose us; not because of anything in us. At Calvary he poured out his justice against sin--it fell upon the outstretched arms of Jesus our Savior. Jesus took away the sin of the world, and ours! In place of our sin Jesus' own righteousness is given to us. Faith receives it. We get to live as God's children united to Christ and to one another, clothed in Jesus' righteousness and guided by his Word and Spirit. In Christ, you are blessed. // Sunday Sermon for February 1, 2026 from 1 Corinthians 1:26-31.
