MID-WEEK SERMON BY SAMUEL NKIRE

TO THE WORLD WE’RE FOOLISH; TO GOD WE’RE WISE.

*To the world and non-believers, the concept of the gospel of Jesus Christ and Christ’s birth via a virgin, amount to foolishness. But to God, the concept of the gospel was to deliver His message of love and salvation to those wise enough to believe.

*Some people of the world, represented by the Jews and the Greeks (Gentiles), who seek signs and knowledge do not still make sense of the gospel till this day.

*However, Corinthians 1:18, 22-23 says:”For the message of the Cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved, it is the power of God. For the Jews request a sign and the Greek seek after wisdom; but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a stumbling block and to the Greek foolishness”.

*Non-believers in the gospel of Jesus Christ, who don’t believe in Holy Spiritualism, see the gospel as a stumbling block and foolishness because it is not physical but preaches forgiveness, grace and faith in Christ through the Holy Spirit, instead of obedience to the law.

*Rather than see followers of the gospel as foolish, Jesus Christ saw the unbelievers as foolish, instead. In Matthew 7:26-27 Jesus Christ said:”But everyone who hears these sayings of mine, and does not do them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on sand . . . “

*Choosing to follow the gospel is the wisest decision anyone can make in a lifetime. 2Timothy 3:15 says: “And that from childhood you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to make you wise for salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus”.

*To many, Christianity is foolishness. But to God, wisdom to the believer.

  1. I have been browsing online greater than 3 hours nowadays, but I by no means found any fascinating article like yours. It’s pretty worth enough for me. Personally, if all web owners and bloggers made just right content material as you probably did, the web will likely be much more useful than ever before.
