1 Corinthians Chapter Two

1 Cor. 2:14

The natural man may be educated and intellectually sharp, but he cannot receive the wisdom of the Spirit as well as a less knowledgeable, but faith-oriented believer.

It’s as if your next-door neighbor bought an expensive big-screen color television set and after it was delivered came over to your house to brag about his new acquisition. While he’s bragging he notices his favorite motion picture coming in on your little black-and-white K-Mart T.V. and exclaims: “Oh, no! They’ve got my favorite movie on and all you’ve got is that crummy little black-and-white job. I’ve got to go see it on my color set.” So he runs home and turns on his expensive set, only to find out that he can’t get the channel he wanted. Why? Well, he didn’t give you time to tell him that you had just subscribed to cable television. He may have the better equipment but you’re “cable ready” for the best shows.
