Read the Bible in a Year 
This evening read First Corinthians 2 


That You May Stand in the Power of God 


Most of you probably want all people to become Christians. Yet, do we think about what we want to draw people to Christ? Here is what Paul said, 

4 And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, 5 that your faith should not be in the wisdom of men but in the power of God (1 Cor. 2:4, 5). 

Do I really want people to be drawn by the power of God? Surely, we all say yes. Okay, so what am I using to draw them? Does it qualify as the wisdom of men or the power of God?
