Where Paul said that GOD is a fool and weak?

Question

one of my muslim friend said this to me can some body show me where in bible paul said so

Answer 1

"For the foolishness of God is wiser than men, and the weakness of God is stronger than men" (1Cor.125) Paul said that GOD Almighty is a fool and weak

Leviticus 24:16
anyone who blasphemes the name of the LORD must be put to death. The entire assembly must stone him. Whether an alien or native-born, when he blasphemes the Name, he must be put to death.

Leviticus 22:32
Do not profane my holy name. I must be acknowledged as holy by the Israelites. I am the LORD, who makes you holy

Yet, Paul said that GOD Almighty is a fool and weak! If cursing GOD Almighty's Holy Name even in the absolute least was not big deal to GOD Almighty in the Bible, then GOD Almighty would not have ordered the killing of those who profane His Holy Name. Paul clearly violated that Law in the Bible by calling GOD Almighty a fool and weak.

Answer 2

Sounds like he mis-understood the passage.wouldn't it be his job to tell you where in the bible it said that?But i have read the bible a few times and I can only think of a few passages that might be mis-understood with a language barrier.Someone else brought up an interesting idea maybe it was a mistake in translation on the old king James.
Just an idea ...If you read the bible & study it ,you would be able to tell them right off that he was mistaken.Remember satan even tried to mis-quote scripture to Jesus.Good thing He knew better.Sorry just trying to say its important or else someone could come along and talk you right out of your faith.
No where that i know of does it say Paul ate pork.Paul had a vision in which he was told to "kill and eat"(un-clean animals) but Paul said"never,I have never ate anything un-clean".The reply was"don't call what i have said was clean, un-clean".At that time the sheet of un-clean animals was REMOVED.he never killed an ate.God was not talking about food he was speaking of the gentiles.

Answer 3

Because a foolish thing of God is wiser than men, and a weak thing of God is stronger than men. What is meant by this scripture is simply this: Even the most weakest moment of God is more powerful than anything man can accomplish. Challenging all of the wisdom of mankind God can jest at it. If the maker of heaven and earth, the creator the merciful the God of Abraham cannot laugh then who can? Even the most foolish thing God may do is wiser than anything a man will try because there exists a way that is upright before a man, but the ways of death are the end of it afterward.

Answer 4

Paul did not say that God is a fool and weak. The Bible, even in Paul's letters state that God is stronger and superior to all. He is above all and nothing will stop Him form doing things His way

Answer 6

Perhaps your friend is confusing that saying with this " Paul wrote: “A physical man does not receive the things of the spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; and he cannot get to know them, because they are examined spiritually.”—1 Corinthians 2:14.
In any event why are Muslims Qouting from Paul whom they consider a Heretic?
