23 but we preach Christ crucified, {Gr. Stauroo – hung on a stake} unto the Jews a stumblingblock and unto the Gentiles foolishness;

24 but unto those who are called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

25 For that which is foolish of God is wiser than men, and that which is weak of God is stronger than men.
