1 Corinthians 1:22 For Jews request a sign, and Greeks seek after wisdom;
The Jews had been shown many signs and miracles by God in their past and they had grown to expect signs and miracles before they would believe.
The Greeks were after anything that would give them more wisdom and knowledge; they wanted to master the world.
We should simply be seeking Christ and not chasing after signs from God or earthly treasures and goals.
Being with Christ in heaven should be our ultimate goal.
