does God use the foolish things of this world to confound the wise?

The word does reveal that God will use the foolish things of this world to confound the wise. The simplicity of God somehow escapes men and in a lot of ways the foolishness of God is wisdom to men.
It just goes to show that the realm that we know and lay hold of God is not in the mind. We know and apprehend God with our spirit that is regenerated.
God's truths are profound and very high yet they are applicable and workable in our day to day lives.

1 Cor. 1:27 But God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise; and God hath chosen the weak things of the world to confound the things which are mighty;

I do not think God tries to confuse the wise but he can use foolish things for other purposes.

That explains Christians then!!! technology has shown atheists have a miles better intelligence than those with a stable non secular faith. the version is 5.8 factors in accordance to findings in developmental psychology!!! greater contributors of the "psychological elite" considered themselves atheists than the national basic. in basic terms 7% of contributors of the yankee national Academy of Sciences believed in God. on a similar time as in basic terms 3.3 % believed in God interior the united statesRoyal Society! we are all puzzled as to why Chrsitians on indexed under are so illiberal, egotistical, hate crammed and bigoted!! Eschewing training, technology, evolution works of fiction and much, plenty greater. Making Christianity the only faith opposing human rights and persecuting gays, professional decision and so plenty greater - yet a techniques worse on a similar time as they call for freedom of religion they deny it to all non Christians and persecute them!!! somewhat complicated while they seem to no longer beleive in a loving and forgiving god!!!!

Satan is the one that does that. God don't cause anything to happen, he allows things to happen. Think about it. My mom fell out of bed at the hospital and I blamed God at first, but then I realized that he didn't cause that, he just allowed it to happen cause my mom was going to die anyway and it was her time to go. I then blamed the staff for not keeping a good eye on her. But when you lose a loved one, it is hard and you want to blame everybody. But God helped me through that one and I am very grateful. But yeah, I think Satan does that one. God Bless
