"Wisdom is better than strength." (Ecclesiastes 9:16)

Following the apostle Paul's lead, we preach Christ crucified, a stumbling block to the legalistically religious and foolishness to the world, but to those who are the called, Christ the power of God and the wisdom of God. Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

The world may try to convince us that their self-serving and violent ways work, but we obey Jesus who says it is the meek who are ready to serve and to give their life for the sake of others that will inheirt His kingdom and have fullness of life. As the church, our task is to prove this to the world by the way we live.
