In chapter 2, Paul keeps going. If chapter 1 was the wisdom of the cross, chapter 2 is the source of true wisdom. And he begins with one of the most beautiful and humbling confessions in all of the New Testament: he tells the Corinthians how he came to preach to them. Not as a polished orator. Not as a philosopher. But as a weak, trembling man whose only message was Jesus Christ and Him crucified.
