The true knowledge of God

6 We also teach wisdom to those who are spiritually mature, but that wisdom does not belong to this world. This is not the wisdom of the rulers of this world. The wisdom of those rulers is being destroyed.
1 Corinthians 2: 6

7 But we are talking about the secret wisdom of God. This wisdom is hidden from the people. God has planned this wisdom for our glory. He planned it before the creation of the world.
1 Corinthians 2: 7

8 None of the rulers of this world has understood this wisdom. If they had understood, they would not have crucified the glorious Lord.
1 Corinthians 2: 8

9 But as it is written, “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no man has imagined what God has prepared for those who love him.”
1 Corinthians 2: 9

10 But God hath shewed these things unto us by the Spirit; and the Holy Ghost knoweth all things, the secret of God.
1 Corinthians 2:10

11 It is like this. No one knows another’s thoughts. In a man only the soul knows his thoughts. So it is with God. No one knows the thoughts of God. Only God’s Spirit knows those thoughts.
1 Corinthians 2:11

12 We have not received the spirit of the world. But we have received the Spirit from God. We have received this Spirit so that we may know the blessings that God has given us without price.
1 Corinthians 2:12

13 When we talk about these things, we do not use the words that have been taught to us by human wisdom. We use spiritual words to describe spiritual things.
1 Corinthians 2:13

14 He that is without spirit cannot understand the things that come of the Spirit of God. He thinks those things are foolish. Such a person cannot understand the things of the soul because such things can only be understood spiritually.
1 Corinthians 2:14

15 But the spiritual man is able to judge all things. As the Scriptures say, other people cannot test such a person.
1 Corinthians 2:15

16 “Who knows the mind of the Lord? Who can tell the Lord what to do?” But for you, you have the mind of Christ.
1 Corinthians 2:16
