1 Corinthians 3:18-19

We are all sinners saved by grace

The renewing of our mind only comes by the wisdom of God freely given to us by the Holy Spirit. He takes the things of Christ and reveals them to those who humbly ask, in faith believing. We need to exchange the worlds paradigm for His.

paradigm |ˈperəˌdīm|
noun
1 technical a typical example or pattern of something; a model

With the triune Godhead all things are possible!

Paul urges the members of the Corinthian church to humble themselves.The Stoic literature of the time, which the Corinthians would have known, often spoke of the wise man as possessing everything. Everything God has done in the church, and in the entire universe, benefits ALL believers. There is no place for foolish boasting or competition among Christians.

1 Corinthians 3:18-19
18 Let no one deceive himself. If anyone among you seems to be wise in this age, let him become a fool that he may become wise. 19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God.

Proverbs 3:7 
7 Do not be wise in your own eyes; Fear the Lord and depart from evil. 

Psalm 94:11 

11 The Lord knows the thoughts of man, That they are futile.
