Reverence for the Lord is the beginning of wisdom. This verse refers to people who are wise in their own eyes and reject God out of pride and self-righteousness. Faith is believing God's promise to save all those who believe in Jesus' finished work on the cross. Salvation is a free gift but many still reject it because they believe they can save themselves.
I don't think it sounds good.
Pleases god through the foolishness of the massage preached?
I thought we could know god through wisdom and faith, how does that fit together?
