Yet Paul says, ... God hath chosen the foolish things of the world to confound the wise... (1 Corinthians 1:27). The word confound is the Greek word kataishuno. It means to put to shame, to embarrass, to confuse, to frustrate, or to baffle. The word wise is the word sophos, referring to those who are naturally brilliant, intellectually sharp, or especially enlightened. Paul is saying that God calls people whom the world considers morons in order to put to shame, embarrass, confuse, frustrate, and baffle those who think theyre so smart! SG
