1 Corinthians 1:30-31
1:30 a When people are united ... with Christ Jesus, God makes them righteous, holy, and free (see 6:11 b; Rom 3:21-26 c; 5:17-21 d). This work of Christ is an expression of God’s wisdom.1:31 e This quotation is a paraphrase of Jer 9:24 f (cp. 2 Cor 10:17 g). Because salvation is a result of God’s sovereign power (1 Cor 2:5 h) and his decision to save his people, there is absolutely no room for human pride (see 1:29 i).
