Lesson 3760

 (Lesson 3760)(05-05-22) 1st Corinthians 2:1-5

    And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.

 And my speech and my preaching was not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power: That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.” 

    In today’s quote, Paul clarified for the Corinthians that he was not, as we would say today, a “bible scholar”. He was simply a man of God sent to convey the gospel of Jesus Christ as it was related to him by Jesus Himself.~
