Fpaud Beautiful Agony

A good transmitter. Pop Goes The Bombonera to

time ago I had the opportunity of being interviewed on a radio where the reception had to enter different types of microphones and radio receivers, some appear to be many years ago as simulating the change in the history of that. No doubt this range of variety presented in the ledge of the cupboard but it was not surprising, but at the same time to think about the origin of these devices.

When we hear a message or a song in our car, having a radio frequency tuned, we are not easy to think of who is behind the microphone, much less what appliances are being used for transmission, but what matters to us is the message , whether those words that captivate us or make us think or that melody that brings such good memories to mind.

As time has progressed, with the advent of television and the Internet, has been easier to see people who speak to us even try to find out who is the artist who represents our favorite character in a series or movie. We have become dependent to see people, but we have gradually lost the importance of the message transmitted by focusing not on the message, but in the transmitter.

We are currently experiencing a phenomenon like this in our Christian churches have learned to be excellent transmitters front of the stage in which our appearance, tone of voice, vocabulary, etc. matter, but downplayed the message, fixing our eyes on a leader, but not in the power of the message that is life itself.

I do not misunderstand me, thank God that we have become aware of the importance of preparing to learn to convey a message it's great that we have a large vocabulary, good posture in front of people, a good all voice and so much more that teaches homiletics, but it is not possible that these factors are those that captivate people and not the importance the message being transmitted.

Within the first letter to the Corinthians chapter 2, we find Paul's explanation about not stand before them with excellence of speech, wisdom and persuasion, but it was presented to them by showing his weakness and fear tremor is not founded their faith in the wisdom of men but in the power of God.

1CO 2:1 SO, Brethren, when I to you to announce THE TESTIMONY OF GOD, DO NOT come with excellence of speech or of wisdom.
1Co 2:2 For I did not know anything among you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.
1CO 2:3 I was with you in weakness and in much fear and trembling
1Co 2:4 And my speech and my preaching were not with persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of Spirit and of power,
1Co 2:5 That your faith should not stand in THE WISDOM OF MEN, BUT IN THE POWER OF GOD.


later also explains how the wisdom that was submitted was not wisdom of this world, but that was the hidden wisdom of God, which can only be revealed by him through his holy spirit.

1CO 2:7 But we speak wisdom in a mystery, the hidden wisdom which God ordained before the ages for our glory,
1Co 2:8 Which none of the princes of this world knew , for had they known, they have crucified the Lord of glory.
1Co 2:9 But as it is written: "Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into HEART OF MAN, SON OF GOD HAS PREPARED FOR THE LOVE YOU.
1CO 2:10 But God hath revealed them unto us by his Spirit: for the Spirit searches everything, even the depths of God.


The wisdom that Paul was not presented to them except from God, revealed through the Holy Spirit, being God reveals things that eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, nor understood the wisest people humanly speaking, but can only be discerned through the spirit.

1CO 2:12 And WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED THE SPIRIT OF THE WORLD, BUT THE SPIRIT THAT COMES FROM GOD, TO KNOW WHAT GOD HAS MADE


But Paul understood that this wisdom could only come from God, he decided not to be seen who was the transmitter at the scene, but its purpose was they could see it only as a channel through which God's message was transmitted.

Christian leaders have to understand once and for all that it is not that we recognize as well that we stood in front of a stage, the excellence of words we use or our wisdom, but acknowledge God through the message that he has placed in our hands to communicate. This is a good talker, which not spread itself, but only sends the message effectively.

1Co 3:18 Let no man deceive himself; If anyone among you to be wise in this world, let a fool, that he may become wise.
1CO 3:19 For the wisdom of this world is foolishness with God, it is written, He taketh the wise in their craftiness.
