‏ 1 Corinthians 1:20-21

v. 20: Paul asks, “Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this world?” All the learning and arguments of the world could not bring people to God. God made the wisdom of the world look foolish, because it could not save anyone (1 Corinthians 1:20-21 ^a).

v. 21: People could not find God through their own wisdom. So, God decided to save those who believe through what seemed foolish—the preaching of Christ crucified. The world thinks this message is weak, but it is actually the way God saves people.
