因天主國不在言、惟在能、

蓋天主之國、在德不在言也、然則爾果何擇：欲予佩教方而來乎？抑懷慈愛與和氣而來乎？

I didn’t preach my message with clever and compelling words. Instead, my preaching showed the Holy Spirit’s power.

The weapons I fight with are not the weapons the world uses. In fact, it is just the opposite. My weapons have the power of God to destroy the camps of the enemy.I destroy every claim and every reason that keeps people from knowing God. I keep every thought under control in order to make it obey Christ.

Our good news didn’t come to you only in words. It came with power. It came with the Holy Spirit’s help. He gave us complete faith in what we were preaching. You know how we lived among you for your good.

God’s kingdom is not about eating or drinking. It is about doing what is right and having peace and joy. All this comes through the Holy Spirit.

He has given me power to do signs and wonders. I can do these things by the power of the Spirit of God. From Jerusalem all the way around to Illyricum I have finished preaching. In those places, I preached the good news about Christ.

I want to preach it because I’m not ashamed of the good news. It is God’s power to save everyone who believes. It is meant first for the Jews. It is meant also for the Gentiles.

But there are those God has chosen, both Jews and Greeks. To them Christ is God’s power and God’s wisdom.
