1 Corinthians 2:1-16 — How can man know God? Listen as Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones explains how this seemingly simple question has immense significance for your life in this sermon on 1 Corinthians 2:1-16. If God cannot be known, how can anyone understand the Gospel and be saved? Thankfully, God has revealed Himself to man! We do not have to discover God through science or philosophy, but God made Himself known in Scripture and in Jesus Christ. In this sermon, Dr. Lloyd-Jones shows our great need for forgiveness and reconciliation with God. Science cannot give us this knowledge because it only tells us about this world. Christians then have nothing to fear from modern man and his claims of intellectual superiority, because true knowledge of God is a gift through His Word, not simply another truth to be discovered. The story of Nicodemus illustrates this well. Our Lord Jesus says that it is the Spirit that shows us God. It is a supernatural act of God that allows fallen sinners to come to a knowledge of a holy God. Do you know God? There is no more important truth than the Gospel of salvation from sins.
