The spiritual contemplation about Gorinthian 1:25-27

Gorinthian 1:25.

For the foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's strength.

-----------------------------------------------------------

What is the foolishness of God? What is weakness of God?

Why dose Paul compare man's wisdom to God foolishness?

Is it true that God is foolish or weak?

I don't think so, I think God is a being who men dare not to judge as foolish or weak.

I believe the whole things in the world are in the strategy of God. So By men's eyes, the thing, sometimes, seems to be foolish or sometimes, weak. This is in the process of the complete good.

I believe that 'in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:28)'

In the end God proves to be strong and wise. Nonetheless I lament to God, God is so cruel. God is inclined to accomplish his end, his good regardless of its mean. even he used the evil. So sometimes God is so cruel as wise and strategic. So we need endurance. The end of God cannot be achieved easily.

 

Gorinthian 1:26-27.

think of what you were when you were called. But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise; God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong.

---------------------------------------------------------

When I am called I was encouraged and proud only because of God, that is, because God calls me and God loves me, because I become a Christian.

But now I come to realize that the way to become a real Christian is too hard, and I come to realize the world is not easy, it is difficult to shame the wise in the world, it is difficult to shame the strong in the world. This means that it is difficult for Christians to submit the wise or the strong in the world to God. If doing so, Christians have power from God and have wisdom from God. In all aspects, Christians should not be inferior to the strong and the wise in the world.

Obviously the way to become a real Christian who has influence on the world is a hard, suffering and painful one.

The degree of Pain is the degree of Power of influence.
