Paul's Method in Corinth: Christ Crucified
1 Corinthians 2:1-5
1
As for me, brothers, when I arrived among you, it was not with surpassing eloquence or wisdom that I came announcing to you the previously concealed truth about God;
2
for I had decided that while I was with you I would forget everything except Yeshua the Messiah, and even him only as someone who had been executed on a stake as a criminal.
3
Also I myself was with you as somebody weak, nervous and shaking all over from fear;
4
and neither the delivery nor the content of my message relied on compelling words of “wisdom” but on a demonstration of the power of the Spirit,
5
so that your trust might not rest on human wisdom but on God’s power.
