Seriously though I was beyond encouraged this morning.
3 reasons:
1) I do not need to preach the gospel was eloquent wisdom unless the Cross has lost its power... last time I checked it was still pretty powerful praise Jesus.
2) God's foolishness shames the wisest of the world. God puts the wisdom of the world to shambles. ITS SO TRUE! After 2000 years millions have not been able to even start a leak in the Yaweh God boat. How amazing is that. They try.... and they just look dumb amen? I was at a extra credit presentation of Rational Theology by a grad philosopy student at A&M... it was the most foolish, sad, confusing thing listen to this guy try to explain the "ultimate good" without God.
3) We don't need miracles to prove God. I was struggling with this and then it slapped me in the face in this chapter and I love it. The signs Jesus has given us and the credible testimony we have leaves us with no excuse to not know God. We don't need any more evidence!!! We already have enough
Thanks and gig em (Yeah, that's right, three posts in one morning... WHOOP)
bam! cameron way to be this morning. god is cool...
ReplyDeletei love 1 cor 1:25 as well....God's foolishness is wiser than any human wisdom. ha! his weakness is stronger than any human strength. ohhh man.
i love what you wrote about the cross having power in itself...like we've talked about before, God can move anywhere He wants to without us...He would have moved at Sky Ranch with or without counselors...but we are just used by Him...all for bringing glory to His name, ultimately. the cross could stand alone...it has stood the test of time (same with the word of God, amen) and WOW about the miracles thing. Why do we as humans always need some supernatural miraculous thing to swoon us or win us over? GOD and the testimony of His son is enough.
Amen whit amen
