Here’s an excerpt from the blog post.
In the New Testament, and particularly in the first and second letters to the Corinthians, Paul reminds his reader to boast only in the Lord. He makes similar statements in Philippians. Paul makes it clear in 1 Corinthians Chapter 1 that the wisdom of God is contrary to the wisdom of man, and the wisdom of man is contrary to the wisdom of God. Human wisdom comes off as foolishness in light of the wisdom of God, and no amount of study in human disciplines can make sense of the wisdom of God. No achievement or accolade can move a person, even an atom, into righteousness. The riches of Monte Cristo could not buy a foot of real estate in the Kingdom of Heaven. So then, why do so many people boast about what they know, what they've accomplished, or what they have accumulated?
Christ Jesus is our wealth, the Spirit has given us wisdom, and God has worked his righteousness in us. I have nothing of my own to boast about. I have nothing of my own that I might hold up before the throne of God and declare, "Consider this, my Lord. Certainly, this trinket I have to offer might be of some benefit to you as I stand before you today." It would be foolishness.
