Context Readings

The Wisdom Revealed By The Spirit

14 The merely intellectual man rejects the teaching of the Spirit of God; for to him it is mere folly; he cannot grasp it, because it is to be understood only by spiritual insight. 15 But the man with spiritual insight is able to understand everything, although he himself is understood by no one. 16 For 'who has so comprehended the mind of the Lord as to be able to instruct him?' We, however, have the very mind of Christ.
