What does the Bible say about the power of God in preaching?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible states that the preaching of the gospel is the power of God, as it reveals Christ as the salvation for His people.

In Luke 4:31-44, Jesus' teaching astonished the people because His word was with power. The true preaching of the gospel, which centers on Christ and gives God all the glory, is indeed the power of God. This is echoed in 1 Corinthians 1:18, where it states that the preaching of the cross is the power of God to those who are being saved. The reason for this power is not the messenger but the message itself, which is focused on Christ, the power and wisdom of God who saves His elect.
