What if our idea of God is wrong?

When we evaluate something, we usually have certain expectations. We decide what it should look like, what it should do, and whether it meets our criteria.

But what happens when we do the same thing with God?

In 1 Corinthians 1:22–25, the Apostle Paul confronts two very different expectations. The Jews demanded signs. The Greeks sought wisdom. Yet Paul preached something that seemed to satisfy neither:

Christ crucified.

To the Jews, Christ crucified was a stumbling block. To the Gentiles, the message appeared to be foolishness. But to those whom God called, Christ was—and remains—the power of God and the wisdom of God.

In this Bible teaching, we will examine why the cross challenged the expectations of both Jews and Gentiles, why God's wisdom can appear foolish according to human standards, and what this passage means for the way we evaluate Jesus today.

Could we be rejecting God's wisdom simply because it does not look the way we expected?

Join me as we study 1 Corinthians 1:22–25 and discover why what the world calls foolishness reveals the extraordinary wisdom and power of God.
