The Wisdom of the Word Versus The Wisdom of the World

Trinity Church of Portland - Sermons

This morning we continued our current sermon series, The Word of God & the People of God. Pastor Thomas Terry preached a sermon titled “The Wisdom of the Word Versus The Wisdom of the World” from 1 Corinthians 1:18-31.

In this sermon we learned about the wisdom of Scripture from 1 Corinthians 1:18-31. Just like Corinth in the First Century, our world views the message of the cross as foolishness and it puts more stock in the wisdom of the world than it does the wisdom of God’s word. This is why the Corinthians had so many problems with sin that prompted Paul to write this letter. We must be people who seek God’s wisdom found in God’s word above the world’s wisdom because God’s wisdom always proves to be the reliable source given to us by God and comes with God’s power so we can grow into greater spiritual maturity.
