1 Corinthians 2

v.2

For I resolved to know nothing while I was with you except Jesus Christ and him crucified.

v.6

We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature, but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing.

v.7

No, we speak of God’s secret wisdom, a wisdom that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began.

v.8

None of the rulers of this age understood it, for if they had, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory.

v.9

However, as it is written: “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepare for those who love him” -

v.13

This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words.

v.14

The man without the Spirit does not accept the things that come from the Spirit of God, for they are foolishness to him, and he cannot understand them, because they are spiritually discerned.
