1 Corinthians 2:1-5
When I came to you, brothers, I did not come with eloquence or superior wisdom as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God. 2 For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. 3 I came to you in weakness and fear, and with much trembling. 4 My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power, 5 so that your faith might not rest on men’s wisdom, but on God’s power.
Quick Notes
This passage is a little more troubling than might first appear. As Christians, we have a responsibility to tell others about Jesus, but several times we get caught up in other issues like church or doctrine, what we believe. Though these things are important, we are not Churchians or Doctrinists, we are Christians - followers of Christ. We look to him as our source of power.
Quick Questions
How many times do we plan on telling someone about Jesus and forget to mention Jesus?
Quick Prayer
O Lord, may my life be a testament of Jesus Christ and him crucified. Amen.
