Differences Revealed

Differences Revealed  - 1 Cor 1:22-24

Vs 22 – Paul reveals the difference between how to reach Jews and Greeks.  The Jews seek for a sign.  They want tangible proof.  The Greeks are looking for wisdom.  What is the moral, philosophical lesson or truth?   What can you teach me to help me be a better me?  

Vs 23 – Paul says that he and those who serve with Him preach Christ crucified.  Jesus died, was buried and rose again.  He shed His blood and allowed His body to be broken.  This is a stumbling block to the Jews and foolishness to the Greeks.

Vs 24 – This message of Christ crucified to whom God has called whether Jew or Greek is Christ the power and wisdom of God.  Jesus is the embodiment of power and wisdom and when you receive this by faith you make yourself called and saved.
