GOSPEL NUGGET #392

1 Co 2:2 For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified.

The writer of these words was the apostle Paul. It was written to Corinthians in Corinth where Greek philosophy was dominant and highly-esteemed.

Paul was a man of great learning, but when he came to Corinth, as in everywhere else, he resolutely and purposely decided not to talk about anything else except the person of the Lord Jesus Christ and what He did on the cross.

Why? He knew that philosophy or education cannot save and therefore transform a sinner. Salvation can only be possible through Christ and what He did on the cross. Education may reform a sinner but only the salvation of the Lord Jesus Christ can transform a sinner.

Trust in the Lord Jesus Christ now and what He did on the cross for your salvation and you will be saved and transformed.
