1 Corinthians 2:10–13, Part 2: The Spirit’s Infinite Search into the Depths of God

2026/10/10

Can anyone search the depths of God? The Holy Spirit can — because he himself is God, and he delights in knowing the depth of infinite glory.

1 Corinthians 2:10–13, Part 1: Does Paul Believe in the Trinity?

2026/10/06

How could the Holy Spirit search the infinite depths of God without being infinite himself, yet somehow distinct from the Father and the Son? The Christian God is triune.

1 Corinthians 2:6–10, Part 5: Who Are the Mature?

2026/10/03

Mature believers are not perfect people. But as we grow in discerning good and evil, we better understand and apply the wisdom of God.

1 Corinthians 2:6–10, Part 4: Unimaginable Joy Prepared for Those Who Love God

2026/09/29

The mystery of God’s goodness in Christ exceeds everything we can imagine. We need God himself to reveal it to us.

1 Corinthians 2:6–10, Part 3: Crucifying the Lord of Glory, They Fulfilled the Wisdom of God

2026/09/26

The rulers of this age mistook Jesus, so they crucified him — and ushered him into new glories he shares with his saints.

1 Corinthians 2:6–10, Part 2: Before Time, God Was Planning Our Glory

2026/09/22

When this world fell into sin, God didn’t scramble for a backup plan. He had planned from all eternity to rescue a people through the work of his Son.

1 Corinthians 2:6–10, Part 1: Don’t Be Impressed with the Wisdom and Power of This Age

2026/09/19

Why should we refuse to get sucked in by the empty promises of this world? Because this age is passing away; nothing it offers will eternally satisfy.

1 Corinthians 2:1–5, Part 3: What Is the Demonstration of the Spirit and Power?

2026/09/15

How did Paul demonstrate the power of the Spirit in his ministry? By preaching in weakness, Paul showed a faith that boasts only in Christ crucified.

1 Corinthians 2:1–5, Part 2: The Crucified Christ and the Trembling Apostle

2026/09/12

Paul relates everything to Christ crucified, including his own ability to preach. How else could he promote faith that boasts in God’s power?

1 Corinthians 2:1–5, Part 1: How Do You Speak So That People Trust God and Not You?

2026/09/08

Paul could have come to the Corinthian church with oratorical skill and philosophical wisdom, but he chose not to. Why?

1 Corinthians 1:26–31, Part 2: Boasting in Man Ends — Boasting in Christ Is Forever

2026/09/05

Our union with Christ grants us every blessing of the Christian life and voids any pride we could take in our own strength. How could we boast in anything but God?

1 Corinthians 1:26–31, Part 1: Why Do Christians Come into Being from Nothing?

2026/09/01

Did God choose us for our connections, influence, or intelligence? No, God saves in a way that abolishes all human boasting.

1 Corinthians 1:18–25, Part 5: Links in the Chain from Cross to Corinth

2026/08/29

Paul builds his case for unity in the Corinthian church by piling seven arguments on top of one another. How do those arguments fit together?

1 Corinthians 1:18–25, Part 4: Philosophy and Oratory Are Powerless to Pay for Sin

2026/08/25

Eloquence and cleverness cannot deliver us from God’s wrath. Only the death of Christ on behalf of sinners can turn condemnation into justification.

1 Corinthians 1:18–25, Part 3: The Glorious Call of God to Dead Hearts

2026/08/22

Why does the same gospel message offend some and delight others? Because the message of Christ crucified lands only on those whom God has called.

Why does this not have more reviews?

Wonderful. Thorough. Edifying. Clear. Biblical. Pastoral. A rich and rewarding listen, every time.
