Introduction:The wisdom of God is very different from the world. In fact most people would think Christians are crazy to believe the things we do. It would be mad to put all our trust in God we cant see or touch - but is it? Maybe this is real wisdom.
Key Verse:For the word of the cross is folly to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God… And because of him you are in Christ Jesus, who became to us wisdom from God, righteousness and sanctification and redemption, so that, as it is written, “Let the one who boasts, boast in the Lord.” (1 Corinthians 1v18, 30-31).
Some Thoughts:By what standard and wisdom are we trying to live up to. Is your mind being renewed by the world thinking or the bible? How can you connect with the truth that you are completely new on the inside, so you can live a totally new way. How can we grasp this gospel truth, so that it becomes a reality?...

No two people will agree on the same things, they wont agree on everything, but how we agree or disagree, or what we agree or disagree on can be important.

Key Verse:I appeal to you, brothers, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that all of you agree, and that there be no divisions among you, but that you be united in the same mind and the same judgment. (1 Corinthians 1v10).

When we think of the word Saint, your mind probably either goes to the TV series, or to old guys that were super good and did kind things to people a bit like St Nick - father Christmas. Yet in the bible it has a totally different view point. Paul uses this word time again to describe Christians; to show the kind of people they now are because of Jesus. Not goody two shoes kind of people, or Holier than thou kind of people, but real people, with real lives.
