God the Father has given the Holy Spirit to be our teacher if you or I should receive a understanding of a truth thru a person than praise God..
4b"And my message and my preaching were very plain. I did not use wise and persuasive speeches, but the Holy Spirit was powerful among you. 5 I did this so that you might trust the power of God rather than human wisdom.
1 Cor 2:4-5 (NLT)
People are just people there are no "special" people, apart from Christ. Paul battled this with the Corinthians when some were saying I am of Paul, I am of Apollos..
12 Some of you are saying, "I am a follower of Paul." Others are saying, "I follow Apollos," or "I follow Peter, " or "I follow only Christ." 13 Can Christ be divided into pieces?
1 Cor 1:12-13 (NLT)
We are given the privelidge of sharing God's love, but this can only happen if we received it...Again NO special people but a very wonderful loving God who communicates His Word thru people......
10 But we know these things because God has revealed them to us by his Spirit
1 Cor 2:10 (NLT)
It takes God's Spirit to reveal truth........that's all
God has given the Holy Spirt to all who believe for this reason ,so we can know His thoughts...and understand our security "IN" Him becasue of Christ and His indwelling Life thru the Spirit..praise God ..not a man..for we are all just tools in the potters hand..
God's LOVE knows NO boundaries
18 All this newness of life is from God, who brought us back to himself through what Christ did. And God has given us the task of reconciling people to him. 19 For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to himself, no longer counting people's sins against them. This is the wonderful message he has given us to tell others. 20 We are Christ's ambassadors, and God is using us to speak to you. We urge you, as though Christ himself were here pleading with you, "Be reconciled to God!" 21 For God made Christ, who never sinned, to be the offering for our sin, so that we could be made right with God through Christ.
2 Cor 5:18-21 (NLT)
Remember no special people..we only become special if Christ is housed within...
