Jews and Greeks and Wisdom, 1 Cor 1.18-25

Jews and Greeks and Wisdom, 1 Cor 1.18-25

Free Bible Study: Paul’s  First Epistle to the Corinthians


Today’s Lesson: Jews and Greeks and Wisdom
 Scripture 1 Corinthians 1.18-1.25

Description:
For the preaching of the cross
The cross mentioned here is not the Christian’s cross, which He must take up and bear for Christ’s sake; although it is a doctrine that Christ and His apostles  taught, and all His saints down through the ages have found to be true.  It is the cross that was held in contempt by those who love the things of the world instead of Christ. It is the cross of Christ; the doctrine of salvation through faith in a crucified Savior; or the doctrine of peace and reconciliation with God by the blood of the cross, and the doctrine of righteousness, pardon, and atonement by Christ offering himself on it as a sacrifice for sin.
