Intellectual Foolishness

"The times demand an intelligent, educated ministry, not novice. False doctrines are being multiplied.The world is becoming educated to a high standard of literacy attainment; and sin, unbelief, and infildelity are becoming more bold and defiant, as intellectual knowledge and acuteness are aquired."
Testimonies for the Church vol.5, p.528 E.G.W.
So where does this leave the philosophers,
the scholars,
and the world's brilliant debaters?
God has made the wisdom of this world look foolish.
1 Corinthians 1:20 NLT
