Corinthians - First Letter - 2a - Not with Wise Words but with God's Power



1 Corinthians 2:1-5 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

Paul’s Proclamation

When I came to you, brothers, announcing the testimony[a] of God to you, I did not come with brilliance of speech or wisdom. For I didn’t think it was a good idea to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. I came to you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling.My speech and my proclamation were not with persuasive words of wisdom[b] but with a powerful demonstration by the Spirit, so that your faith might not be based on men’s wisdom but on God’s power.
