Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:1 - And I, brethren, when I came unto you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:2 - For I determined not to know anything among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:3 - And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:4 - And my speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power:
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:5 - that your faith should not stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:6 - We speak wisdom, however, among them that are fullgrown: yet a wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who are coming to nought:
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:7 - but we speak God’s wisdom in a mystery, even the wisdom that hath been hidden, which God foreordained before the worlds unto our glory:
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:8 - which none of the rulers of this world hath known: for had they known it, they would not have crucified the Lord of glory:
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:9 - but as it is written,
Things which eye saw not, and ear heard not,
And which entered not into the heart of man,
Whatsoever things God prepared for them that love him.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:10 - But unto us God revealed them through the Spirit: for the Spirit searcheth all things, yea, the deep things of God.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:11 - For who among men knoweth the things of a man, save the spirit of the man, which is in him? even so the things of God none knoweth, save the Spirit of God.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:12 - But we received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is from God; that we might know the things that were freely given to us of God.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:13 - Which things also we speak, not in words which man’s wisdom teacheth, but which the Spirit teacheth; combining spiritual things with spiritual words.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:14 - Now the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are foolishness unto him; and he cannot know them, because they are spiritually judged.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:15 - But he that is spiritual judgeth all things, and he himself is judged of no man.
Unchecked Copy Box1Co 2:16 - For who hath known the mind of the Lord, that he should instruct him? But we have the mind of Christ.
