Worldly Wise and Strong but Foolish and Weak in the Spiritual World
There is an impressive teaching in the Bible:1 Corinthians 1
25 Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.
People following Satan, pursuing wealth and money and wishing for worldly success, cannot understand the need to accept the teaching of the God and live in poverty, humbleness, and self-sacrifice. Therefore, they have more worldly wisdom, power, and influence than those following the God and Christ Jesus. So, to such worldly people, followers of Christ Jesus look foolish.
Those worldly people think that those followers of Christ Jesus are wrong and evil as they do not follow teachings of Satan. Those worldly people are brainwashed by Satan to respect and trust teachings of Satan, so that to their eyes follows of Christ Jesus look bad and evil as they are against Satan. This is a completely crazy world where followers of the God are regarded as being evil, since they do not respect and follow Satan.
The world today is close to this crazy world, since almost everybody wishes for money with which Satan controls people.

Luke 3, King James Version
6 And all flesh shall see the salvation of God.
7 Then said he to the multitude that came forth to be baptized of him, O generation of vipers, who hath warned you to flee from the wrath to come?
8 Bring forth therefore fruits worthy of repentance, and begin not to say within yourselves, We have Abraham to our father: for I say unto you, That God is able of these stones to raise up children unto Abraham.
However, the God is the lord of the mankind and the king over this world and the spiritual world, thus He can defeat Satan at any time. Therefore, those followers of Satan who became rich and powerful would finally die and go to the hell. Even in their life in this world, they could be abandoned even by Satan who should laugh at them losing everything in this world or in life after death.
Indeed, those following Satan and pursuing money think that those following the God and Christ Jesus and accepting poverty are foolish. But finally, Satan followers would be rejected at Heaven, but followers of the God and Christ Jesus would be accepted in Heaven.
And any weak men admitted into Heaven should turn to be stronger than any worldly strong men falling into the hell.
In this context, kings, presidents, billionaires, pundits, notable and successful men, etc. in this world would be foolish and weak in the spiritual world, while homeless, low-income people, people without academic backgrounds and social status, etc. would be wise and strong in Heaven.
