1 CORINTHIANS 2
THE HOLY SPIRIT PROVIDES BELIEVERS WITH GOD’S TIMELESS WISDOM
Paul reminds the Corinthians that he did not come to Corinth with an eloquent speech or persuasive message, but only to tell of Jesus through the power of the Holy Spirit. Paul teaches that godly wisdom is not fleeting or trendy, but instead is mature and timeless. Because the rulers could not comprehend Jesus’s humble leadership, He was crucified. Remembering Isaiah 64:4, Paul states that no one is able to imagine what God has prepared for those who love him. God’s ways are often unexpected and contrary to cultural norms.
Paul contemplates the depth of intimate knowledge obtained by the Holy Spirit. The Spirit searches and knows all things, including the great vastness of God. Because the Spirit dwells inside believers, God imparts wisdom and understanding through the work of the Spirit.
