AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 1:18 ¶ For the message of the cross is foolishness [absurd and illogical] to those who are perishing and spiritually dead [because they reject it], but to us who are being saved [by God's grace] it is [the manifestation of] the power of God. |

Bible Note: Dear Gunnie, You wrote, "Through these I developed faith." If you mean faith as the Scripture uses it, then it came directly from the Lord.

God graciously provides the vocabulary along with the definitions. In Him, Doc |
