Cross is power of God but not for fools!



These verses pretty well sums up what God thinks about those who trust in the cross of Jesus and those who don't:

1 Corinthians 1:18-25

Christ the Wisdom and Power of God
18 For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written,

“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise,
and the discernment of the discerning I will thwart.”

20 Where is the one who is wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the debater of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? 21 For since, in the wisdom of God, the world did not know God through wisdom, it pleased God through the folly of what we preach to save those who believe. 22 For Jews demand signs and Greeks seek wisdom, 23 but we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to Jews and folly to Gentiles, 24 but to those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. 25 For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

Yesterday I was told because I believe and follow Jesus I am gullible, mindless, full of hate, and bigoted. As I refer to the above verses I understand why I was told that. I know pray for this person to come to the knowledge and truth of our Lord and Savior before it is too late. We must stand and tell the truth in today's culture as they push their agenda which stands in opposition to the Word of God. 

I will stand upon the cross of Jesus until death, no matter the cost, for I believe!!!
