The Foolishness Of The Message Of The Cross

Contributed by Anitha Jabastion on Jul 23, 2021

Was Paul saying that the message of the cross was foolish? Paul was a Jew brought up in a Roman town and was greatly influenced by Greek culture. When he preached Christ, Paul found that each of these cultures had its own particular challenges when the gospel was concerned.

For Jews request a sign, and Greeks seek after wisdom; but we preach Christ crucified, to the Jews a ...read more
