In this lecture on 1 Corinthians 2:6-16, Don Carson emphasizes that the wisdom of God, revealed through the cross, is accessible only through the Holy Spirit. The Spirit helps believers understand and proclaim the wisdom of the cross, which is foundational to spiritual growth and revival. Carson warns against elitism and stresses the importance of humility and the gospel in true spiritual understanding.

He teaches the following:

How the wisdom of God contrasts with worldly wisdom and the rulers of this age
The Holy Spirit searches all things, and only the Spirit of God can understand God's thoughts
Why the interpretation of Scripture must be grounded in the Spirit's guidance
How the wisdom of the cross is accessible to all believers
The differences between the natural person and the spiritual person
The cross is the supreme climax of God's self-disclosure to humanity
Why the work of the Spirit is essential in both individual conversions and church revivals
