Gaining God’s Wisdom

Feb 18, 2026    Pastor Marc Williamson

In this message from 1 Corinthians 2, Pastor Marc Williamson teaches that the wisdom of God is not gained through worldly philosophy, intellectual pride, or human reasoning. True spiritual understanding comes only through Jesus Christ and the revealing work of the Holy Spirit.


This sermon highlights Paul’s resolve to preach Christ crucified in simplicity and power, showing that genuine faith must rest in the power of God rather than the wisdom of men. It also explains why the natural man cannot receive the things of the Spirit, and why believers are able to discern truth because they have the Spirit of God and the mind of Christ.


This message will help listeners understand:


why the wisdom of the world cannot lead a person to God

why Christ is the wisdom of God to believers

how the Holy Spirit reveals spiritual truth

why biblical discernment depends on spiritual understanding

how Christians can continue growing in God’s wisdom


A clear and helpful sermon on the power of the Gospel, the ministry of the Holy Spirit, and the believer’s need to depend fully on God for true wisdom.
