Power and Wisdom
The power and wisdom of God have been revealed in the proclamation of the Messiah who was crucified on Calvary. Jesus performed miracles, exorcised demons, and taught with great authority, for a time, attracting large crowds. Nevertheless, his contemporaries failed to recognize who he was despite supernatural displays of power. In the end, only the Roman centurion on duty at Golgotha perceived him to be the “son of God” when he breathed his last.
