1 Corinthians 1:25 Douay-Rheims

For the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

Augustine of Hippo

A.D. 354–430 Patristic

There is no way that this gospel truth could have been made acceptable to some philosophers and debaters. They follow a way of life that does not stand in the truth but is only an imitation of it. They deceived themselves and others.
