it is written

“I WILL DESTROY THE WISDOM OF THE WISE,
AND THE CLEVERNESS OF THE CLEVER I WILL SET ASIDE.”
- 1 Corinthians 1:19

22 For indeed Jews ask for signs and Greeks search for wisdom;
23 but we preach Christ crucified, to Jews a stumbling block and to Gentiles foolishness,
24 but to those who are the called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God.

29 so that no man may boast before God.
30 But by His doing you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, and righteousness and sanctification, and redemption,
31 so that, just as it is written, “LET HIM WHO BOASTS, BOAST IN THE LORD.”



Jeremiah 17
5
Thus says The LORD,
“Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind
And makes flesh his strength,
And whose heart turns away from The LORD.
6
“For he will be like a bush in the desert
And will not see when prosperity comes,
But will live in stony wastes in the wilderness,
A land of salt without inhabitant.
7
“Blessed is the man who trusts in The LORD
And whose trust is The LORD.
8
“For he will be like a tree planted by the water,
That extends its roots by a stream
And will not fear when the heat comes;
But its leaves will be green,
And it will not be anxious in a year of drought
Nor cease to yield fruit.
9
“The heart is more deceitful than all else
And is desperately sick;
Who can understand it?
10
“I, The LORD, search the heart,
I test the mind,
Even to give to each man according to his ways,
According to the results of his deeds.
