Kingschild: The text that surrounds 1 Cor. 2:2 makes clear what Paul's focus was in coming to the Corinthians. He did not come "with excellency of speech" or "with enticing words of man's wisdom (see vss. 1 and 4 of 1 Cor. 2). But he came instead, having determined to know nothing among them except Jesus Christ and Him crucified. His focus was on Jesus Christ -- His Person, and on Him crucified -- His finished work of redemption on the cross. That is the focal point, the centerpiece if you will, of all Scripture: Jesus Christ and His work of redemption. It is the focal point and central message of the church, and the focal point and witness of regenerate believers. All else is merely exposition. --Hank | ||||||
