Preaching Christ, pt 2
Play this Message
“I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified” (1 Corinthians 2:1-5).
As we consider this text we first look at the man. Paul was transformed by Jesus Christ. He had opposed the gospel; he had persecuted the church. But when Christ met him on the road to Damascus he was changed and was surrendered to Christ, desiring above everything else to know Him better and serve Him diligently.
We then see the message. He was not bringing a message to make people feel good about themselves, but was preaching the gospel of Christ which brings hope to fallen sinners. Every doctrine which he taught and every practical admonition he gave was connected to the person of Jesus Christ.
And then we see the method. He was not depending on oratorical ability or philosophical explanation, he was depending on the power of the Spirit to use the message effectively.
