B7L9
In this Bible study on Exodus 4 and 1 Corinthians 1, Les Feldick explores why God often chooses the "weak" and "foolish" things of the world to confound the wise. Using the story of Moses’ insecurity and reluctance, Les explains how God strips us of self-reliance so He can use us for His glory.
Les also dives into the New Testament to explain why "Jews require a sign" (1 Corinthians 1:22), how Peter’s encounter with Cornelius changed history, and why the simple "preaching of the cross" is the only true power of God for salvation.
