What the Bible says about Glorying not in Human Nature
(From Forerunner Commentary)

1 Corinthians 1:26-31

Let him glory, not in human nature—not in what he has done by way of works—but "let him glory in the Lord."

We can summarize what Paul writes here by putting it into different words. He says: "It is because of what the Father did. It is because of His work that we are in Christ, for in Christ are all the riches of salvation. All that we are that is right, we owe to them; therefore, if we're going to glory, let us glory in the Lord."
