Wisdom 1 Corinthians 1:18-31

For in these verses God tells us that Christ is the True wisdom so right there we can see that our ideas of “Wisdom” is way off from the Truth. I think that when we humans think of wisdom we think of something that will get us some kind of notability with other humans when it’s about our relationship with Christ that’s more important.  Bathing in His light will transform us beyond anything we can imagine.

As if, the person who knows how everyone should act but they are different. However, we all know what is expected of us but we make excuses for why we...
