Si Cristo na Ipinako sa Krus

Mga kapatid, nang pumunta ako sa inyo, hindi ako dumating na nagbabalita sa inyo ng hiwaga[a] ng Diyos ayon sa kahusayan ng pananalita o ng karunungan. Sapagkat napagpasyahan ko noong kasama ninyo ako na walang anumang makilala, maliban kay Jesu-Cristo, siya na ipinako sa krus. Ako nga'y nakasama ninyo nang may kahinaan, may takot, at matinding panginginig. Ang aking pananalita at ang aking pangangaral ay hindi sa pamamagitan ng mga mapanghikayat na salita ng karunungan, kundi sa pagpapakita ng kapangyarihan ng Espiritu, upang ang inyong pananampalataya ay hindi mapasalig sa karunungan ng mga tao, kundi sa kapangyarihan ng Diyos.

Ang Pagpapahayag ng Banal na Espiritu ng Diyos

Ngunit sa mga nasa hustong gulang ay nagsasalita kami ng karunungan, gayunma'y hindi ang karunungan ng kapanahunang ito, o ng mga pinuno sa kapanahunang ito, na pawang mawawalan ng kabuluhan. Sa halip, ang sinasabi namin ay ang hiwaga at itinagong karunungan ng Diyos, na kanyang itinalaga bago pa nagkaroon ng mga panahon para sa kaluwalhatian natin. Wala ni isa man sa mga pinuno ng kapanahunang ito ang nakaalam nito, sapagkat kung ito'y nalaman nila, hindi sana nila ipinako sa krus ang Panginoon ng kaluwalhatian. Subalit tulad ng nasusulat,

“Ang mga bagay na hindi nakita ng mata, at hindi narinig ng tainga,
    at hindi pumasok sa puso ng tao,
ay ang mga bagay na inihanda ng Diyos para sa kanila na nagmamahal sa kanya.”

10 Ngunit ipinahayag ito sa amin ng Diyos sa pamamagitan ng Espiritu; sapagkat sinisiyasat ng Espiritu ang lahat ng bagay, pati ang malalalim na bagay tungkol ng Diyos. 11 Sapagkat sino ang nakaaalam ng mga iniisip ng isang tao, kundi ang espiritu ng tao na nasa kanya? Gayundin naman, walang nakaaalam ng mga iniisip ng Diyos, kundi ang Espiritu ng Diyos. 12 Kami ay tumanggap, hindi ng espiritu ng sanlibutan, kundi ng Espiritung mula sa Diyos, upang malaman namin ang mga bagay na walang bayad na ipinagkaloob sa amin ng Diyos. 13 At ang mga bagay namang ito ay ipinapahayag namin hindi sa pamamagitan ng mga salitang ayon sa pagtuturo ng karunungan ng tao, kundi sa pagtuturo ng Espiritu, na aming ipinapaunawa ang mga bagay na espirituwal sa mga espirituwal. 14 Ngunit ang taong di-espirituwal ay hindi tumatanggap ng mga bagay ng Espiritu ng Diyos, sapagkat kahangalan ang mga iyon sa kanya at hindi niya iyon nauunawaan, yamang ang mga iyon ay hinahatulan sa espirituwal na paraan. 15 Hinahatulan naman ng taong espirituwal ang lahat ng mga bagay, at hindi siya hinahatulan ng sinuman. 16 “Sapagkat sino ang nakaaalam sa pag-iisip ng Panginoon, upang magpayo sa kanya?” Subalit taglay namin[b] ang pag-iisip ni Cristo.

  2. 1 Corinto 2:16 o natin.

And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not in loftiness of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of Christ.

For I judged not myself to know anything among you, but Jesus Christ, and him crucified.

And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.

And my speech and my preaching was not in the persuasive words of human wisdom, but in shewing of the Spirit and power;

That your faith might not stand on the wisdom of men, but on the power of God.

Howbeit we speak wisdom among the perfect: yet not the wisdom of this world, neither of the princes of this world that come to nought;

But we speak the wisdom of God in a mystery, a wisdom which is hidden, which God ordained before the world, unto our glory:

Which none of the princes of this world knew; for if they had known it, they would never have crucified the Lord of glory.

But, as it is written: That eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither hath it entered into the heart of man, what things God hath prepared for them that love him.

10 But to us God hath revealed them, by this Spirit. For the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.

11 For what man knoweth the things of a man, but the spirit of a man that is in him? So the things also that are of God no man knoweth, but the Spirit of God.

12 Now we have received not the spirit of this world, but the Spirit that is of God; that we may know the things that are given us from God.

13 Which things also we speak, not in the learned words of human wisdom; but in the doctrine of the Spirit, comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

14 But the sensual man perceiveth not these things that are of the Spirit of God; for it is foolishness to him, and he cannot understand, because it is spiritually examined.

15 But the spiritual man judgeth all things; and he himself is judged of no man.

16 For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that we may instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.

And so it was with me, brothers and sisters. When I came to you, I did not come with eloquence or human wisdom(A) as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God.[a] For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.(B) I came to you(C) in weakness(D) with great fear and trembling.(E) My message and my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words,(F) but with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power,(G) so that your faith might not rest on human wisdom, but on God’s power.(H)

God’s Wisdom Revealed by the Spirit

We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature,(I) but not the wisdom of this age(J) or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing.(K) No, we declare God’s wisdom, a mystery(L) that has been hidden(M) and that God destined for our glory before time began. None of the rulers of this age(N) understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.(O) However, as it is written:

“What no eye has seen,
    what no ear has heard,
and what no human mind has conceived”[b]
    the things God has prepared for those who love him—(P)

10 these are the things God has revealed(Q) to us by his Spirit.(R)

The Spirit searches all things, even the deep things of God. 11 For who knows a person’s thoughts(S) except their own spirit(T) within them? In the same way no one knows the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. 12 What we have received is not the spirit(U) of the world,(V) but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may understand what God has freely given us. 13 This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom(W) but in words taught by the Spirit, explaining spiritual realities with Spirit-taught words.[c] 14 The person without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God(X) but considers them foolishness,(Y) and cannot understand them because they are discerned only through the Spirit. 15 The person with the Spirit(Z) makes judgments about all things, but such a person is not subject to merely human judgments, 16 for,

“Who has known the mind of the Lord
    so as to instruct him?”[d](AA)

But we have the mind of Christ.(AB)
