God Chooses The Foolish Things To Shame The Wise

So … would Jesus dare to choose and use the unsanctified? Well, little children, we’ll have to go to the Book of Books to answer that riddle, won’t we?

The short answer is, my dear pearl-clutching cancel culture is, God has always used the man or the woman whom the self-righteous wouldn’t choose, nor even consider.

But God would.

Paul, the apostle, put it this way …

For consider your calling, brethren, that there were not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble; but God has chosen the foolish things of the world to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to shame the things which are strong, and the base things of the world and the despised God has chosen, the things that are not, so that He may nullify the things that are, so that no man may boast before God. (1 Co. 1:26-29, NASB)

It’s clear from 1st Corinthians that Christ calls the bad boys and girls. The one that, according to the powers that be, be not “good enough” according to “them.”

It’s also crystal clear that God enjoys shaming the “wise” and the “strong.” Did you catch that? A loving God loves shaming “experts.” As in humiliating them.

Since God loves to shame and quash the experts, He always goes alookin’ for the man or the woman who the dipsticks think is the least likely to succeed. He said there be not many who are wise, mighty, and noble who do his bidding. But the base? Well, he uses them in abundance.

Allow me to elaborate here …

If Masculinity Is ‘Toxic’, Call Jesus Radioactive

Much of the Left loathes masculinity and they love to paint Jesus as a non-offensive bearded woman who endorses their agenda. This book blows that nonsense all to hell. From the stonking laptop of bestselling author, Doug Giles, comes a new book that focuses on Jesus’ overt masculine traits like no other books have heretofore. It’s informative, bold, hilarious, and scary. Giles has concluded, after many years of scouring the scripture that, If Masculinity Is ‘Toxic’, Call Jesus Radioactive.
