VERSE:
1 Corinthians 2:4-5 (New American Standard Bible)
4 and my message and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, 5 so that your faith would not rest on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.
LESSON:
Wisdom - Who is wiser, Man or God?
This verse makes it plain that preaching should not be based upon the wisdom of man, but instead, on the power of God, and of the Holy Spirit. Why? Persuasive words of man are temporary. The wisdom of God is eternal.
