AMPLIFIED 2015 | 1 Corinthians 1:21 For since the world through all its [earthly] wisdom failed to recognize God, God in His wisdom was well-pleased through the foolishness of the message preached [regarding salvation] to save those who believe [in Christ and welcome Him as Savior]. |
Bible Question:
Hi, my question today is: What is the difference between knowing and beleiving? Can some one simply explain that to me so an ant could understand it if he had the ears to listen to our words? Thank You. |
Bible Answer: Life and Death! 1 Corinthians 1:21 (New King James Version) For since, in the wisdom of God, the world through wisdom did not "know" God, it pleased God through the foolishness of the message preached to save those who "believe." I knew there was a Christ, but I didn't know Him until I believed in Him. We are not knowers (is that a word), we are believers. inmyheart |
