2 For I determined not to know anything among you aexcept Jesus Christ and Him crucified.
3 aI was with you bin weakness, in fear, and in much trembling.
4 And my speech and my preaching awere not with persuasive words of1 human wisdom, bbut in demonstration of the Spirit and of power,
5 that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the apower of God.
Spiritual Wisdom
6 However, we speak wisdom among those who are mature, yet not the wisdom of this age, nor of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing.
7 But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God1 ordained before the ages for our glory,
8 which none of the rulers of this age knew; for ahad they known, they would not have bcrucified the Lord of glory.
