And I was with you in weakness and in fear and with much trembling.

Also some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers were conversing with him, and some were asking,“ What does this foolish babbler want to say?” Others said,“ He seems to be a proclaimer of foreign gods.”( They said this because he was proclaiming the good news about Jesus and the resurrection.)

Guard against self- deception, each of you. If someone among you thinks he is wise in this age, let him become foolish so that he can become wise.

As Paul was saying these things in his defense, Festus exclaimed loudly,“ You have lost your mind, Paul! Your great learning is driving you insane!”

For we rejoice whenever we are weak, but you are strong. And we pray for this: that you may become fully qualified.

because some say,“ His letters are weighty and forceful, but his physical presence is weak and his speech is of no account.”

“ Then they will hand you over to be persecuted and will kill you. You will be hated by all the nations because of my name.

So then, my dear friends, flee from idolatry.I am speaking to thoughtful people. Consider what I say.

“ Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you and say all kinds of evil things about you falsely on account of me.

Now when they heard about the resurrection from the dead, some began to scoff, but others said,“ We will hear you again about this.”

And you will be hated by everyone because of my name. But the one who endures to the end will be saved.Whenever they persecute you in one place, flee to another. I tell you the truth, you will not finish going through all the towns of Israel before the Son of Man comes.“ A disciple is not greater than his teacher, nor a slave greater than his master.It is enough for the disciple to become like his teacher, and the slave like his master. If they have called the head of the house‘ Beelzebul,’ how much more will they defame the members of his household!

He was despised and rejected by people, one who experienced pain and was acquainted with illness; people hid their faces from him; he was despised, and we considered him insignificant.

For the message about the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.For it is written,“ I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and I will thwart the cleverness of the intelligent.”Where is the wise man? Where is the expert in the Mosaic law? Where is the debater of this age? Has God not made the wisdom of the world foolish?

Jesus also told this parable to some who were confident that they were righteous and looked down on everyone else.

since you are demanding proof that Christ is speaking through me. He is not weak toward you but is powerful among you.For indeed he was crucified by reason of weakness, but he lives because of God’s power. For we also are weak in him, but we will live together with him, because of God’s power toward you.

So let the one who thinks he is standing be careful that he does not fall.

For since you are so wise, you put up with fools gladly.

From Paul, called to be an apostle of Christ Jesus by the will of God, and Sosthenes, our brother,to the church of God that is in Corinth, to those who are sanctified in Christ Jesus, and called to be saints, with all those in every place who call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours.Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ!

The one who denounces his neighbor lacks wisdom, but the one who has discernment keeps silent.

Who is weak, and I am not weak? Who is led into sin, and I do not burn with indignation?

When Jehu rejoined his master’s servants, they asked him,“ Is everything all right? Why did this madman visit you?” He replied,“ Ah, it’s not important. You know what kind of man he is and the kinds of things he says.”

I fed you milk, not solid food, for you were not yet ready. In fact, you are still not ready,

But he said to me,“ My grace is enough for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” So then, I will boast most gladly about my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may reside in me.Therefore I am content with weaknesses, with insults, with troubles, with persecutions and difficulties for the sake of Christ, for whenever I am weak, then I am strong.

They will be dumbfounded and be brought to judgment. Since they have rejected the word of the LORD, what wisdom do they really have?

Already you are satisfied! Already you are rich! You have become kings without us! I wish you had become kings so that we could reign with you!

Consequently the one who rejects this is not rejecting human authority but God, who gives his Holy Spirit to you.

The time of judgment is about to arrive! The time of retribution is imminent! Let Israel know! The prophet is considered a fool– the inspired man is viewed as a madman– because of the multitude of your sins and your intense animosity.

If you are insulted for the name of Christ, you are blessed, because the Spirit of glory, who is the Spirit of God, rests on you.

“ The one who listens to you listens to me, and the one who rejects you rejects me, and the one who rejects me rejects the one who sent me.”

Think about the circumstances of your call, brothers and sisters. Not many were wise by human standards, not many were powerful, not many were born to a privileged position.But God chose what the world thinks foolish to shame the wise, and God chose what the world thinks weak to shame the strong.God chose what is low and despised in the world, what is regarded as nothing, to set aside what is regarded as something,

For I will show him how much he must suffer for the sake of my name.”
