The Wisdom of God is Foolishness to the World
· God’s wisdom goes against the wisdom of mankind (Isaiah 55:8-9)
· Man’s wisdom is rooted in self-dependence, pride
· God’s wisdom is rooted in God-dependence, humility
· God’s wisdom is designed to destroy the wisdom of men (The Cross, The Tomb, The Appropriation)
The Provision of God is Beyond Comprehension by the World
· The world only knows what it can see, hear and feel in its limited knowledge
· Forgiveness
· Relationship with Jesus
· Purpose in life
· Eternal life with Jesus
The Prompting of God’s Spirit Needed
· Apart from Jesus there is a spiritual blindness in the heart of all people
· We need the Holy Spirit to pull back the blindness of our heart (2 Corinthians 4:4)
· That is why when the Holy Spirit shows you the truth of God’s wisdom you need to respond
