保祿寫信給格林多人時提到，當他第一次經由雅典去拜訪他們時，心中還存留著在雅典福傳的挫敗創傷，他是多麼灰心絕望到谷底，甚至幾乎喪失繼續傳教的動力：「而且當我們到你們那裡的時候，又軟弱，又恐懼，又戰兢不安；並且我的言論和我的宣講，並不在於智慧動聽的言辭，而是在於聖神和衪德能的表現，為使你們的信德不是憑人的智慧，而是憑天主的德能。」（格前二3-5）
在格林多後書「軟弱」（希臘文asthenia）是關鍵字，它的意思包含身體或心靈方面的疾病、虛弱、疲乏等等。雅典的失敗，點出保祿在福傳上的條件與要求。的確，他體會到光靠人的作為絕對不夠，必須完全依賴聖神的恩寵。因此他說：「天主決意以愚妄的道理來拯救那些相信的人」；因為「天主使世上的智慧變成愚妄。」（參考格前一20-21）

My spouse and I stumbled over here different web address and thought I might as well check things out. I like what I see so now i’m following you. Look forward to looking at your web page for a second time.
Needed to compose you one bit of remark to say thanks over again on the striking views you’ve contributed at this time. This is quite shockingly open-handed of you to present without restraint what most people could have distributed for an electronic book in order to make some profit on their own, most notably now that you might well have done it in the event you desired. These solutions as well acted as a fantastic way to be sure that someone else have similar desire the same as my own to see many more on the topic of this problem. I believe there are some more pleasant moments ahead for folks who look into your website.
