1 Corinthians 2:7-16

1 Corinthians 2:7-16

[7] But  we speak  the wisdom  of God  in  a mystery,  even the hidden  wisdom, which  God  ordained  before  the world  unto  glory:  [8] Which  none  of the princes  world  knew:  for  had they known  it, they  not  have crucified  the Lord  of glory.  [9] But  as  it is written,  Eye  not  nor  ear  heard,  neither  have entered  into  the heart  of man,  the things which  God  hath prepared  for them that love  him.  [10] God  hath revealed  by  Spirit:  for  the Spirit  searcheth  all things,  yea,  the deep things  of God.  [11] For  what  man  knoweth  the things  of a man,  the spirit  of man  which  is in  him?  even  so  the things  of God  knoweth  no man,  the Spirit  of God.  [12] Now  have received,  not  the spirit  of the world,  but  the spirit  which  is of  God;  that  we might know  the things that are freely given  of  God.  [13] Which things  also  we speak,  not  in  the words  which man's  wisdom  teacheth,  but  Ghost  teacheth;  comparing  spiritual things  [14] But  the natural  man  receiveth  not  the things  of the Spirit  of God:  for  foolishness  unto him:  neither  can  he know  them, because  they are spiritually  discerned.  [15] But  he that is spiritual  all things,  yet  he himself  is judged  of  no man.  [16] For  who  hath known  the mind  of the Lord,  that  he may instruct  him?  But  have  the mind  of Christ.
