No Other Foundation

The unsaved man, the man Paul calls the "natural man," has no ability to understand spiritual things. Devoid of the Spirit of Christ, the natural man can only conclude that God's Word is foolishness. By the Spirit alone, through the new birth, is a person enabled to understand the things of God.

A Foolish Message
The natural man cannot understand nor accept the things of the Spirit of God. The Word of the Cross is just foolishness to him.

One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism
The Lord leaves us no room for boasting. We are in Christ only because He has elected and saved us. It is by His doing alone that we have the gift of faith and repentance.

Preaching Christ Risen in Athens Today
Many professing Christian churches are changing biblical terms in an attempt to make sinners not feel like "outsiders." Paul's sermon on Mars Hill shows us that we must never alter the gospel in some attempt to make it less scandalous to the sinner.
