2:5 {3} That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
(3) And he tells the Corinthians that he did it for their great profit, because they might by this know manifestly that the Gospel was from heaven. Therefore he privately rebukes them, because in vainly seeking to be noticed, they willingly deprived themselves of the greatest help of their faith.
2:5 That your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men. Their faith was not produced by the triumphs of oratory or philosophy,
But in the power of God. By the gospel preached in the power of the Spirit. Hence it was wrought through the means supplied of God.
2:5 That your faith might not be built on the wisdom or power of man, but on the wisdom and power of God.
2:1-5 Christ, in his person, and offices, and sufferings, is the sum and substance of the gospel, and ought to be the great subject of a gospel minister's preaching, but not so as to leave out other parts of God's revealed truth and will. Paul preached the whole counsel of God. Few know the fear and trembling of faithful ministers, from a deep sense of their own weakness They know how insufficient they are, and are fearful for themselves. When nothing but Christ crucified is plainly preached, the success must be entirely from Divine power accompanying the word, and thus men are brought to believe, to the salvation of their souls.
