Where do you find wisdom?

Описание: The church in Corinth was a real mess! In the opening verses of St. Paul’s first letter to them, he expresses pretty clearly and pretty quickly the bottom-line of the Gospel – that is, the message of the cross. He contrasts God’s wisdom with human wisdom and there’s not much comparison to be made! The foolishness comes in us thinking how smart and fine and wise we are – when, in reality, that is all just another form of darkness. We hear in Micah, the Old Testament reading, some foolishness at the end of the reading, when he lays out what exactly God does require of us. It rings true to what Paul was writing at the end of the 1 Corinthians reading. Paul is urging us toward keeping a proper perspective on ourselves in relation to our God and Savior.

Old Testament: Micah 6:1-8
Epistle: 1 Corinthians 1:18-31
Gospel: Matthew 5:1-12
Sermon Title: “Foolishness and Darkness: Two Peas in a Pod”
