Paul's Method in Corinth: Christ Crucified

1 Corinthians 2:1-5

And I, having come unto you, brethren, came--not in superiority of discourse or wisdom--declaring to you the testimony of God,

for I decided not to know any thing among you, except Jesus Christ, and him crucified;

and I, in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling, was with you;

and my word and my preaching was not in persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power--

that your faith may not be in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
