What does God think of human wisdom? The Bible shows us that He has exposed its limitations and folly. Humanity, boasting in its intellect, claimed it could find and understand God completely. God allowed this wisdom to operate freely, giving it the vast universe to study and thousands of years to discover Him. Yet, despite having the stars, earth, and life as evidence of His power and nature, worldly wisdom failed.
The ancient world, instead of finding God, fell into deep moral decay. People worshipped idols—blocks of wood and stone—while engaging in vile practices. Instead of honoring the Creator, they exalted vices and called them religion. Human reasoning, when left to itself, revealed its depravity, proving its inability to discover God or true worship.
God, in His wisdom, chose a different path to reveal Himself—not through human intellect, but through the “foolishness” of preaching. As Scripture declares, “For the foolishness of God is wiser than human wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than human strength” (1 Corinthians 1:25). True understanding comes not from prideful reasoning but from humble, child-like faith in Him.
