The Weakness of Human Wisdom

Since God in his wisdom saw to it that the world would never know him through human wisdom, he has used our “foolish” preaching to save those who believe….The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they sound foolish to him, for only a spiritual person can understand spiritual things. The spiritual person evaluates all things, but he himself cannot be evaluated by anyone. (1 Corinthians 1:21, 2:14-15)

What the world calls an educated person is not someone who knows the truth. He is not someone who has more knowledge. He is only someone who has been brainwashed by other men like him. These are men who think that they have discovered truth. They have convinced themselves that they possess wisdom and knowledge.

God sees to it that humans can never find God by their own ability and intelligence. But since God is the foundational truth, the ultimate truth, and all truth, this means that men can never discover truth by their own power.

In fact, the more they invest their energies and resources into the discovery of truth, the more their inability and prejudice veer them away from the truth. The end result is a system of opinion that has very little contact with reality. And of course, there can be no salvation in such a system. It leads to hell and eternal suffering.

True knowledge will not introduce doubt toward God. The denial of God is ignorant. It is a delusion. True intelligence will not introduce doubt toward the supernatural. Both atheism and cessationism are stupid. Both of these pagan philosophies reject Jesus Christ as he explained himself in revelation and in history.

Skepticism toward God from any perspective — whether in the form of atheism, satanism, or cessationism — is not a mark of wisdom, but it is ultimate foolishness that throws men into the destructive spiral of generation after generation of delusional idiots convincing themselves that they are enlightened.

The most delusional and hypocritical form of unbelief is cessationism and other versions of faithless religion. Faithless pseudo-Christians are the most hard-hearted, because they believe that they are the most loyal and precise followers of Jesus Christ, when they are often no better than religious atheists and satanists. Christianity is their culture, not their faith. Of course, a mere culture never saves anyone.
