1 Corinthians 1:19-20 As the Scriptures say, “I will destroy human wisdom and discard their most brilliant ideas.” So where does this leave the philosophers, the scholars, and the world’s brilliant debaters? God has made them all look foolish and has shown their wisdom to be useless nonsense. It’s amazing what we know because of recent advances in technology and science. There’s no doubt that it’s answered a lot of questions and shed light on some great mysteries. But, no matter how much we seem to know, every generation discovers something else that they can’t explain. I think God’s up there laughing when we think we know so much. Then He mixes things up just to see our amazement and watch us scramble to try and explain something with science and knowledge that can only be explained by God. For example, there’s a guy at the church where I lead worship and he’s been legally blind his whole life. Several weeks ago his eyesight was healed. He can see perfectly. No surgery, no contact lenses or glasses. Perfect vision. I’d like to see science and human wisdom explain that! There are a lot of amazing things we’ve discovered and figured out. Each one reminds me how fascinating God’s imagination is and how vastly huge the depths of Him mind must be. My knowledge seems like a drop in the bucket in comparison.
