Jesus Christ and Him Crucified

by Alistair Begg

1 Corinthians 1:26–2:5
 (ID: 2742)

Most false gospels highlight man’s achievements and man’s abilities. In contrast, Paul reminded the Corinthian church that when they were called to salvation, they weren’t exceptionally wise, influential, or noble. In this message, Alistair Begg reminds us that the pastor’s faith and message are not based upon personality but on the proclamation of the cross of Jesus Christ. Our greatest need is to understand our insignificance and Christ’s preeminence.
