1 Corinthians 2:14

The Wisdom Revealed By The Spirit

¹³ And these are the things which we say, not in the language of man's wisdom, but in words given to us by the Spirit, judging the things of the spirit by the help of the Spirit. ¹⁴ For the natural man is not able to take in the things of the Spirit of God: for they seem foolish to him, and he is not able to have knowledge of them, because such knowledge comes only through the Spirit. ¹⁵ But he who has the Spirit, though judging all things, is himself judged by no one.
