Targeting the right people
Matthew 7:24-29
1. What did the wise and foolish men have in common?
The wise men who hear the Word of God but do not put it into practice will be like the foolish men who didnt even heat the Word itself.
1 Corinthians 2:6-16
2. What help do we have to understand scripture?
God has revealed it to us by his Spirit.
We have not received the spirit of the world but the Spirit who is from God, that we may understand what God has freely given us.
This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words.
The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned. The spiritual man makes judgments about all things, but he himself is not subject to any man's judgment.
