1 Corinthians 2:1-5 - Paul's Approach To Ministry In Corinth
1 Brothers, I did not come to you with superiority of speech or with human wisdom, declaring to you the testimony of God. 2 I decided not to know anything among you, except Jesus Christ and his death on the torture stake. 3 And I came to you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. 4 My speech and my preaching were not with enticing words of man's wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, 5 that your faith should not exist in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
