The Gospel Alphabet: "K" for "Knowledge"

“K”—Knowledge

We continually learn the Gospel, even as believers, because the Gospel is the revelation of the knowledge and wisdom of God. Though the message of Christ crucified seems foolish to many in this age, to those whom God has called, both Jews and Greeks, Christ is the power of God and the wisdom of God (1 Cor 1:23-24).

The Gospel is a message of wisdom among the mature (1 Cor 2:6), a message that is God’s secret wisdom that has been hidden for ages (1 Cor 2:7). But God has revealed it to us by his Spirit (1 Cor 2:10). Who has known the mind of the Lord that he would instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ (1 Cor 2:16). To grow in the knowledge of God’s wisdom, grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ, then, let us remain steadfast in the Gospel.
