Paul, as learned as he was, did not use lofty words and deep theological knowledge to impart the message of Jesus Christ. He kept it simple. Likewise, we may be wise and scholarly, but the message of Christ is simple to understand. He died for us, to save us from our sins, to give us a path to righteousness, so we may commune with God forever. Worldly wisdom will pass from this world but the message of Christ and the miracle of salvation is eternal. 

1 Corinthians 2:1-11
