1 Corinthians 3:18-23

1 Corinthians 3:18-23
18 Do not deceive yourselves. If any of you think you are wise by the standards of this age, you should become “fools” so that you may become wise. 19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness in God’s sight. As it is written: “He catches the wise in their craftiness”; 20 and again, “The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are futile.”

Our wisdom is nothing when confronted with God's wisdom.  Even when God's way does not make sense to us, it is because we have no clue of the big picture.  So in layman's terms, get over yourself and realize God's way is the best way.

21 So then, no more boasting about human leaders! All things are yours, 22 whether Paul or Apollos or Cephas or the world or life or death or the present or the future—all are yours, 23 and you are of Christ, and Christ is of God.

We, as Christians, have everything we need and it ALL comes from God, through Christ.  It's not about your teacher or you background.  It's about Him.

Grace and peace to you from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ.
