Foolishness... cont'd?

This is a continuation of the previous post. So read that one first.

I just reread that passage, and I'm going to post it up again. And reflect upon it as I type.

========================

1 Corinthians 1:18-25
For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written:

"I will destroy the wisdom of the wise;
the intelligence of the intelligent I will frustrate."

Where is the wise man? Where is the scholar? Where is the philosopher of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of the world? For since in the wisdom of God the world through its wisdom did not know him, God was pleased through the foolishness of what was preached to save those who believe. Jews demand miraculous signs and Greeks look for wisdom, but we preach Christ crucified: a stumbling block to Jews and foolishness to Gentiles, but to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. For the foolishness of God is wiser than man's wisdom, and the weakness of God is stronger than man's strength.

=============================

God just showed me that my thinking is totally wrong (imagine that...).

I said that God's Kingdom is so backwards from the world's.

However... I'm simply wrong.

See, I should say that, "The world's kingdom is backwards from God's Kingdom."

I wonder how my worldview would change if I thought like that. I wonder how I would change the way I lived my life if I thought like that.

When said like that, it puts things into a new perspective.... interesting, God. I'm kind of excited to see what You might work in my life through this perspective shift.
