1 Corinthians 1:22-25

AUV(i) 22 Now Jews ask for [miraculous] signs and Greeks [i.e., Gentiles] are looking for wisdom, 23 but we [apostles] preach that Christ was crucified [for our sins]. This message is offensive to Jews and foolishness to [unconverted] Gentiles. 24 But to those who are called [by God to be saved], both Jews and Gentiles, [the message of] Christ is the power of God [See 1:16] and the wisdom of God. [See 1:30]. 25 For the “foolish things” of God are wiser than men’s [wisdom], and the “weakness” of God is stronger than men’s [strength].
