If God exists?.

1 Corinthians 2:1-5 (New International Version)

1 When I came to you, brothers, I did not come with eloquence or superior wisdom as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God. 2 For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified. 3 I came to you in weakness and fear, and with much trembling. 4 My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words, but with a demonstration of the Spirit's power, 5 so that your faith might not rest on men's wisdom, but on God's power.

What does that mean though?

 

The apostle Paul could of overwhelmed his listeners with intellectual arguments. Instead he shared the simple message of Jesus Christ by allowing the Holy Spirit to guide his words. In sharing the Gospel with others, we follow Paul’s example and keep our message simple and basic. The Holy Spirit will give power to our words and use them to bring Glory to Jesus.
