1 Corinthians 2:4-7

New International Version

⁴ My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words,^(A) but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power,^{(B) 5} so that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on God’s power.^(C)

God’s Wisdom Revealed by the Spirit

⁶ We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature,^(D) but not the wisdom of this age^(E) or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing.^{(F) 7} No, we declare God’s wisdom, a mystery^(G) that has been hidden^(H) and that God destined for our glory before time began.
