If the Gospel cannot be comprehended earned or comprehended by our strength, status, or intellect, then how do we come to know the gospel? How do we come to faith?
This week, Paul explains how this works.
The first thing he says is “This is why I preached so meekly, plainly, and simply to you: I wanted the Spirit’s power in bringing you to faith to be so obvious to you that you wouldn’t base your faith on my preaching talent."
The second point is this: There is a place for wisdom within the Church, but it’s wisdom that God the Holy Spirit reveals to those who believe in the Lord Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit works within the speakers and hearers in the Church to impart spiritual wisdom, giving us all the “mind of Christ.”
