The Determination of Paul
1 Corinthians 2:2
For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.


Let us —

I. EXPLAIN IT. He determined —

1. To preach Christ crucified, as the ground of hope, and the motive to obedience.

2. To exclude everything else.

II. VINDICATE IT. This was —

(1)  All he was commissioned to preach.

(2)  All it was necessary to preach.

(3)  Everything else but weakens the efficacy of the truth.

(J. Lyth, D. D.)
