20. ‘It pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that believe’.   ‘For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us who are saved it is the power of God’.     ‘Christ did not send me to preach the gospel, and not with words of eloquent wisdom, lest the cross of Christ be emptied of its power’.

22. ‘We do not preach ourselves but Jesus Christ as Lord and ourselves as his servants for Jesus’ sake’.
