1 Corinthians 2:6-8

⁶Among the mature, however, we speak a message of wisdom — but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing.

⁷No, we speak of the mysterious and hidden wisdom of God, which He destined for our glory before time began.

⁸None of the rulers of this age understood it. For if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.
