not many of your were wise according to the worldly standard
not many were powerful
not many were of noble birth
But God chose what is foolish in the world to shame the wise;
God chose what is weak in the world to shame the strong;
God chose what is low and despised in the world,
even things that are not, to bring to nothing things that are,
so that no human being might boast in the presence of God.
And because of him you are in Christ Jesus,
who became to us wisdom from God,
righteousness and sanctification and redemption,
so that, as it is written, "Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord."
1 Corinthians 1:26-31
Remember your calling! you were divinely called by God... you were chosen by him... by his grace and his divine election....
so my brothers! do not boast in the presence of God... for whatever you have all comes from God.. he choses us as an instrument to perform his tasks and all glory shall be given to Him...
it is because of His grace and mercy that we are in Christ Jesus... He is the wisdom of God... through Him we are saved, cleansed and brought over from sin!
Therefor let us Boast in the Lord! and His name shall forever be glorified! Amen
