27 But God chose the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, God chose the weak things of the world to shame the strong,
28 God chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things, and the things that are not, to nullify the things that are,
29 so that no flesh may boast before God.
17 For Christ did not send me to baptize, but to preach the gospelnot with words of human wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power.
4 and my message and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
32 And I, when I am lifted up from the earth, will draw all men to myself.«
