As Paul was explaining how the wisdom of man is inferior to the wisdom of God and how man needed to seek his fulfillment in Christ, he observed that “Jews request a sign, and Greeks 
seek after wisdom; but we preach Christ crucified” (1 Cor. 1:22-23). Then, he showed them that what they were seeking could only be found in what he was preaching. To the Jews who seek a “sign,” Christ is “the power of God,” and to the Greeks who seek “wisdom,” Christ is “the wisdom of God” (1:24). Why don’t more people seek their fulfillment in Christ?
Today, folks are trying to “find themselves.” Have they looked to Christ? Folks are wanting to know “what their purpose is.” Have they looked to Christ? Folks are looking for “the meaning of life.” Have they looked to Christ? That is why Paul said, “For I determined not to know anything among you except Jesus Christ and Him crucified” (2:2). When Christ is the one who “fills all in all” (Eph. 1:23) and is “all and in all” (Col. 1:23), why would we look anywhere else?
