Les membres du corps de Christ ne doivent pas s'attendre à une position ici-bas autre que celle de leur chef. De même que le Sauveur a vécu sur la terre dans une faiblesse non apparente, mais réelle, de même il ne faut pas entendre par ces choses folles, faibles, viles, (Grec : "non nobles"), méprisées, ce qui parait tel, mais ce qui l'est réellement dans l'estimation des hommes.
La vérité de Dieu s'est manifestée dans l'Evangile comme une sagesse absolument nouvelle, étrangère à ce monde. Elle a commencé par répudier la sagesse et la culture des hommes, tout ce qu'ils estimaient et recherchaient, afin de se révéler dans la pauvreté, la bassesse, l'humiliation, l'ignominie de la croix, aussi bien pour les disciples que pour le Maître.
La contradiction qui se trouve ici entre les apparences et la réalité ne sera conciliée qu'à l'accomplissement du règne de Dieu, et lorsque le "fils du charpentier," le Roi couronné d'épines reviendra dans sa gloire.
C'est pourquoi il est aussi faux qu'inutile de vouloir présenter aux hommes du monde le christianisme comme la plus haute philosophie, ou comme une source de puissance et de gloire. Toute tentative de ce genre ne peut conduire qu'à dénaturer l'Evangile, ainsi que le prouvent les essais modernes de conciliation, soit avec les systèmes humains, soit avec la puissance et la gloire mondaines (dans la papauté).
Afin de rendre cette pensée aussi absolue que possible, l'apôtre ajoute à son énumération même les choses qui ne sont point, pour détruire celles qui sont. Dieu, par l'Evangile, "fait toutes choses nouvelles ;" il n'y a point de place dans cette création nouvelle pour les choses vieilles qui voudraient s'y maintenir. (Comparer Romains 4.17-21, note ; Matthieu 10.39 ; Luc 14.26)
Il n'y a donc pas de milieu : il faut mépriser ce que Dieu méprise, ou porter la témérité jusqu'à préférer le jugement du monde au jugement de Dieu.
