1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellencie of speech, or of wisedome, declaring vnto you the testimony of God.

2 For I determined not to know any thing amōg you, saue Iesus Christ, and him crucified.

3 And I was with you in weakenesse, and in feare, and in much trembling.

4 And my speech, and my preaching was not with entising words of mans wisedome, but in demonstration of the Spirit, and of power:

5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdome of men, but in the power of God.

6 Howbeit wee speake wisedome among them that are perfect: yet not the wisedome of this worlde, nor of the Princes of this worlde, that come to nought:

7 But wee speake the wisedome of God in a mysterie, euen the hidden wisedome which God ordeined before the world, vnto our glory.

8 Which none of the princes of this world knewe: for had they knowen it, they would not haue crucified the Lord of glory.

9 But as it is written, Eye hath not seene, nor eare heard, neither haue entred into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that loue him.

10 But God hath reueiled them vnto vs by his Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deepe things of God.

11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, saue the spirit of man which is in him? Euen so the things of God knoweth no man, but the Spirit of God.

12 Now wee haue receiued, not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit which is of God, that wee might know the things that are freely giuen to vs of God.

13 Which things also we speake, not in the words which mans wisedome teacheth, but which the holy Ghost teacheth, comparing spiritual things with spirituall.

14 But the naturall man receiueth not the things of the Spirit of God, for they are foolishnesse vnto him: neither can he know them, because they are spiritually discerned.

15 But he that is spirituall, iudgeth all things, yet he himselfe is iudged of no man.

16 For who hath knowen the mind of the Lord that he may instruct him? But we haue the mind of Christ.

Mary's 1 Corinthians Chapter 2 comment on 5/13/2013, 9:26pm...

I to feel the writer of this gospel, is trying to let God's people know we have something wonderful to come to when this world comes to it's end. Jesus Christ will be there to comfort and love us. Like he said He is the light in a very dark world. Just believe.

 


Tally's 1 Corinthians Chapter 2 comment about verse 9 on 3/18/2013, 7:15am...

This verse is an amazing example of the intensity of God’s love for us and the awesome sacrifice of our Lord Jesus Christ.

 


R. D. Mattock's 1 Corinthians Chapter 2 comment on 3/10/2013, 9:43pm...

On verse 9, Paul begins to write of that city with foundations not made by human hands. But whose builder and maker is God. John said it was amazing, he said the walls were as Jasper, he said there were 12 gates made of pearl, and each individual gate was a single pearl. He said this city had 12 foundations and each one of the 12 foundations had a different of precious stone. He said that city was as glimmering solid gold. He said I saw the streets of the city they were like gold and transparent as glass. I look and saw a throne of God, there out of the throne of God flows a crystal river called the river of life. It flows out of the throne of God and it flowed all around the regions thereof. And he said there were trees on the banks of this river, trees of life, and they bore a different kind of fruit every month. The leaves on the trees were for the healing of the nations. And he said there was something different, there was no sun there, no moon there, because of the Glory of God was the light of the city, and the lamb was the lamp thereof. God's presence was so great there was no need for the sun. He said there was no night there because the Glory of God totally illuminates the place throughout eternity, and people were able to go in and out of the city. This is what waits the righteous. John said something else: thine eyes shall see the King in his beauty. Thank God for the glory and beauty of Heaven, but thank him most of all for my risen lord, who loved me and gave his life for me.

Great verse! Very encouraging!

 


Timothy Wayne George's 1 Corinthians Chapter 2 comment on 1/05/2013, 10:06am...

Praise God we speak the wisdom of God, and not of this world. If the princes of this world had known wisdom, they would not have crucified the Lord of Glory. We are the aroma of Christ; to them that are saved the smell of life, and to them that are lost the smell of death. So we speak the mystery of God, which is Christ in you the hope of glory. May the risen Lord bless you to share this good news where ever He sends you this year.

 


Doris's 1 Corinthians Chapter 2 comment on 1/02/2013, 10:16pm...

This chapter has really made me to love the Lord, more and more. Like the bible said the word of GOD is powerful.

 


Alicia's 1 Corinthians Chapter 2 comment on 12/14/2012, 4:21am...

Verse 15, But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, yet he himself is judged of no man. It's true that God is the final judge as far as welcoming his good and faithful servants or saying depart from me, I never knew you. There are other judgments also, Are our judgments biased or based on God's word? Knowing what is just, righteous, correct is judgment also. Right and Wrong are judgments like the son shall not be judged for the father’s sin. We shall all be judged according to the works we do in our own body. We receive pardon and favor in God's eyes when we repent from our sins and accept Jesus as our Savior and Lord.

 


Zenaida subrabas's 1 Corinthians Chapter 2 comment about verse 9 on 12/10/2012, 4:58pm...

The writer stressed the very limited capacity of man to imagine the things that God has prepared for His people for even man himself cannot imagine the beauty of the paradise prepared by God for those who truly love and adore Him. It is beyond description as a line of a song goes. If one can comprehend the truth of this verse wholeheartedly, undoubtedly, he would not fear physical death because it would be the gateway to this indescribable beauty. But the question is can we really say "I love you, Lord ". Without feeling a pinch of guilt for all we know we are not worthy to utter, knowing our sinfulness, most of all greed. Are we worthy of that prepared haven? Thanks be to the Lord Jesus for it is He that will make us worthy through the shed blood of His on the cross.
