When God’s wisdom clashes with what the world calls smart, the cross becomes the turning point. In 1 Corinthians 1:18–25, Paul shows how the message of Jesus crucified sounds like foolishness to some, but is actually the power of God to save. This sermon exposes how pride demands proof and control, and why God’s rescue refuses to play by our terms. The invitation is simple and personal: trust God over appearances, lay down pride, and respond to Christ with humble obedience, repentance, and faith.
