Text: 1 Corinthians 1:26-31
31 August 2025

Senior Sunday School 31 August 2025

Text: 1 Corinthians 1

Subject: “He who glories, let him glory in the Lord.” 1 Corinthians 1:31

Lesson #8

26 For you see your calling, brethren, that not many wise according to the flesh, not many mighty, not many noble, are called.

27 But God has chosen the foolish things of the world to put to shame the wise, and God has chosen the weak things of the world to put to shame the things which are mighty;

28 and the base things of the world and the things which are despised God has chosen, and the things which are not, to bring to nothing the things that are,

29 that no flesh should glory in His presence.

30 But of Him you are in Christ Jesus, who became for us wisdom from God—and righteousness and sanctification and redemption—
