highlighted verses: 1 Corinthians 1:18 For the preaching of the cross
is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the
power of God.
19

to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
20

of God, and the wisdom of God.
25

to understand it, the highest of all goals.
We pray that with the guidance of the Holy
Spirit, you accomplish both.
