获取软件Daily Bible Reading – September 2021, God’s Word of Wisdom预览
September 15
Introduction
Paul reminds the Corinthians that, when he first arrived, he did not use eloquent words to preach “God’s secret truth” because the message of Christ’s death on the cross was of paramount importance. Paul contrasts the world’s wisdom with “God’s secret wisdom” and explains the role of God’s Spirit in revealing God’s truth.
Today’s Scripture Reading
1 Corinthians 2:1-16
Today’s Key Verse: 1 Corinthians 2:5
Your faith, then, does not rest on human wisdom but on God’s power.
Reflect
How does Paul describe himself in verses 1-5? What does he say enabled him to deliver his message to the Corinthians? Reread verse 2. Why is Jesus’s death on the cross central to Paul’s message? What is “God’s secret truth” (verse 1) and “God secret wisdom” (verse 7)? Why was this wisdom hidden from the rulers of the world? Is such wisdom still hidden today? What does Paul say about God’s Spirit (verses 10-16)? In what ways has God’s Spirit enlightened your understanding of “God’s secret truth” and “God’s secret wisdom”?
Pray
Sovereign God, you are the source of all true wisdom. Enlighten me with your Spirit so that I may grow stronger in faith day by day, learning more and more about you and trusting in you and in your love. Amen.
