Those who are being saved must let the wisdom and power of Christ reshape their values, witness, and daily obedience, even when the world rejects the message of the cross.

        A. This supports the thesis by showing why believers must entrust themselves fully to Christ’s crucified work.
    3. Christ embodies God’s power and wisdom for all the called, overturning every cultural measure of truth (1 Corinthians 1:24).
        A. This supports the thesis by grounding transformed thinking and living in Christ rather than worldly approval.

    Conclusion: Therefore, repent of trusting worldly wisdom, believe Christ crucified, and daily shape your decisions, identity, and witness by God’s powerful cross.
