1 Corinthians 1:28
God chose the lowly things of the world, and the things that are despised, and the things that don’t exist, that he might bring to nothing the things that exist,
1 Corinthians 1:29
that no flesh should boast before God.

For the word of the cross is foolishness to those who are dying, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.
1 Corinthians 1:19
For it is written, “I will destroy the wisdom of the wise. I will bring the discernment of the discerning to nothing.”
1 Corinthians 1:20
Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Hasn’t God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
1 Corinthians 1:21

1 Corinthians 1:22
For Jews ask for signs, Greeks seek after wisdom,
1 Corinthians 1:23
but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Greeks,
1 Corinthians 1:24
but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God;
1 Corinthians 1:25
because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
