18-20 Exposition : Paul is getting ready to wrap up his opening argument. Thus far, he has presented two convergent streams of thought: one, the foolishness of claiming superiority based on which teacher one follows; the other, the worthlessness of worldly wisdom vis-a-vis the wisdom of God. In these 3 verses he returns briefly to the second of these, and in the next 3, he offers a preliminary conclusion to the first. 18 Failing to abandon the wisdom is this world in exchange for the "foolishness" of God is self-deceit. 19-20 Paul grounds this with the statement of verse 19, which is further grounded by scripture. Application : This is clearly important to Paul, to the Corinthians, and certainly to our Corinthinanesque society: The ways of this world are of no use to the Follower of Christ. ("The things of God are not to be estimated in accordance with the rules of philosophers." Leon Morris) 21-23 Exposition : "So then..." A decisive end to this drawn out matter (although the theme drifts into the next chapter). The concluding reason, however, is unique: Why claim to belong to this teacher or that teacher, when in fact, they, along with all the world, all of life, even death, and in fact all things that are and are yet to be, belong to you through Christ? Why sell yourself so short? "All things belong to you." And, Paul continues, "you belong to Christ, and Christ belongs to God." End of Discussion. Application : If we stop to think of the things that divide us, and maybe even expand that list to the things that trouble us, the things we fear, the things we have lost or the things we will one day lose, and we set all these things before us, Paul's question becomes very, very powerful: Why do you bicker about such things? Why do they trouble you? Why do you fear them? Why do you mourn their loss or worry about their ultimate demise? Why do you sell yourself so short? All of these things belong to you in Christ. And that's huge, because you yourself (along with all of these things) belong to Christ, and Christ belongs to God? Why do we trouble ourselves over the matters of this world when we are firmly encamped in the hand of Almighty God?
