“I came to you not with eloquence or superior wisdom
(Apollos-like) as I proclaimed to you the testimony about God….My message and
my preaching were not with wise and persuasive words (Apollos-like again), but
with a demonstration of the Spirit’s power so that your faith might not rest on
men’s wisdom, but on God’s power.”
The lack of the Spirit’s power in leaders, teachers
and ‘believers’ leads to division, exploitation, the abuse of people and the
misuse of the name of God. It is blasphemy. Paul is arguing the difference
between abstraction and authenticity. In my view this is a fundamental issue
with many modern Bible-teaching Assemblies today.
