The Father Revealed in the Son(A)
25 At that time Jesus said, “I praise you, Father,(B) Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children.(C)
Luke 10:21
New International Version
21 At that time Jesus, full of joy through the Holy Spirit, said, “I praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and learned, and revealed them to little children.(A) Yes, Father, for this is what you were pleased to do.
Acts 17:18-21
New International Version
18 A group of Epicurean and Stoic philosophers began to debate with him. Some of them asked, “What is this babbler trying to say?” Others remarked, “He seems to be advocating foreign gods.” They said this because Paul was preaching the good news(A) about Jesus and the resurrection.(B) 19 Then they took him and brought him to a meeting of the Areopagus,(C) where they said to him, “May we know what this new teaching(D) is that you are presenting? 20 You are bringing some strange ideas to our ears, and we would like to know what they mean.” 21 (All the Athenians(E) and the foreigners who lived there spent their time doing nothing but talking about and listening to the latest ideas.)
Romans 1:20-22
New International Version
20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made,(A) so that people are without excuse.(B)
21 For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened.(C) 22 Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools(D)
Romans 1:28
New International Version
28 Furthermore, just as they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, so God gave them over(A) to a depraved mind, so that they do what ought not to be done.
1 Corinthians 3:19-23
New International Version
19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness(A) in God’s sight. As it is written: “He catches the wise in their craftiness”[a];(B) 20 and again, “The Lord knows that the thoughts of the wise are futile.”[b](C) 21 So then, no more boasting about human leaders!(D) All things are yours,(E) 22 whether Paul or Apollos(F) or Cephas[c](G) or the world or life or death or the present or the future(H)—all are yours, 23 and you are of Christ,(I) and Christ is of God.
