Philosophy is futile

Philosophy is futile – 1 Cor 3:20-21

Vs 20 – The wise of this world and their philosophies they present are futile.  All the thoughts of men end up in self destruction and eternal damnation.  Every philosophy that does not include the Lord is in vain.  Man is the center and that will always lead away from God and into selfishness.

Vs 21 – Paul then exhorts them to stop boasting about men.  All things are theirs in Christ.  Paul would later explain what that means.  In reality all of heaven with its benefits are theirs.  Eternal and abundant life brought by grace and love belong to them.  God has lavish on His people all the benefits of heaven.  They come through and end in Christ.
