1 Corinthians 1:18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but to us which are saved it is the power of God. I. IN THEM THAT PERISH — they deem it foolish — yet it confounds their wisdom — succeeds where it has failed. II. IN THEM THAT ARE SAVED — because it conquers their opposition — and becomes in them the power of God and the wisdom of God. (J. Lyth, D. D.)
