For the kingdom of God is not a matter of talk but of power — the kingdom's manifestation is not rhetorical but transformative. 'Talk' (logos) is human eloquence; 'power' (dynamis) is the Spirit's work of salvation, healing, and holiness. Corinthian boasting values words; Paul redirects to power. Who is truly spiritual? Not the eloquent but the one in whom God's kingdom-power is operative.
