How do we know God chooses the weak and foolish?

In 1 Corinthians 1:25-28, the Apostle Paul articulates that God intentionally selects the weak, foolish, and base things of the world to confound those who consider themselves wise and mighty. This choice serves a dual purpose: it showcases God's wisdom and power, and it humbles humanity by reinforcing that salvation is entirely of grace. By not depending on human strengths or wisdom, God reveals His sovereign grace, offering salvation to a remnant that recognizes their insignificance. This divine election is both a source of comfort and assurance for believers, illustrating that God’s redemptive plan is rooted not in human merit but in divine grace.
