A Neutralizing Effect
1 Corinthians 1:17 (KJV)
[17] For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.
Academia and wisdom of words can actually unplug the Power of the Cross! If we are not careful they destroy what Christ is trying to do.
People with high and great intelligence tend to over compensate…. beyond the power of change!
Preaching the Power of the Cross needs no accessories or refinement to be effective!
Words of wisdom or The Power of the Holy Ghost? You choose.
