And my message and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, so that our faith would not rest on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God. I Corinthians 2:4-5
We would think that the apostle Paul was a confident and powerful speaker, swaying audiences with his knowledge and wisdom. Paul didn't see himself that way and he didn't wish for others to see it either. He wanted people to see the power of the Spirit, so he hid behind the cross of Christ. Let's be careful to trust in Christ instead of preachers. Christ has the power to save so we can walk in His grace.
