Why do people see the world so differently? In 1 Corinthians 2, Paul contrasts the wisdom of this world with the wisdom of God, which only His Spirit reveals. In this sermon, Dr. Toby Holt examines the clash of worldviews and why God's truth is foolishness to the natural mind.

Questions this sermon answers:

1. Why do worldviews collide? Because the world's wisdom and God's wisdom are fundamentally different. What seems wise to the world is folly to God, and vice versa.

2. Why can't everyone simply see the truth? Because spiritual truth is spiritually discerned. The "natural man" cannot receive the things of God's Spirit on his own.

3. Where should our confidence rest? Not in human wisdom or clever arguments, but in the power of God and the truth of His Word. "But the natural man does not receive the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him; nor can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned." — 1 Corinthians 2:14 (NKJV)
