The Word of the Cross
The Cross, Unity, and God’s Unexpected Wisdom · 1 Corinthians 1
Story guide: An unoccupied cross braces a repaired footbridge while a collapsed civic platform exposes the limits of worldly systems. This portrays the word of the cross in 1 Corinthians 1:18-21.
Open this scene in the reader →18For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
19For it is written: “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and I will set aside the understanding of the intelligent.”
20Where is the wise man? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made the wisdom of the world foolish?
21For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, God was pleased through the foolishness of the proclamation to save those who believe.
