During the presidential election of 1992, Bill Clinton's campaign team grasped the issue that appeared to matter the most for Americans and won the election by the slogan; "It's the economy, stupid." I thought it was brilliant. At every argument, you say "it's the economy, stupid" and walk out as a winner. If you've paid attention to the first two chapters of 1 Corinthians, it sounds like that's what Paul is telling the Corinthians; "It's the cross" - that's what matters the most. But a word of insult like "stupid" doesn't belong to bible. Does it? I for one favor the power of insult which when used at the right time, can be effective (but not friendly). Yes, harsh words are sometimes needed to wake up a person. So join us this Sunday as Paul adds "stupid" to complete his campaign slogan to unite the Corinthians; "It's the cross, stupid!" Well, not exactly, but you'll see what I mean.
