1 Corinthians / Question
Question source
1 Corinthians
Paul says the “natural person” does not accept the things of the Spirit of God and cannot understand them because they are spiritually discerned (1 Corinthians 2:14). By contrast, the “spiritual person” discerns these things, and Paul concludes, “we have the mind of Christ” (1 Corinthians 2:15–16).
14Now the natural man doesn`t receive the things of the God`s Spirit, for they are foolishness to him, and he can`t know them, because they are spiritually discerned.
15But he who is spiritual discerns all things, and he himself is judged by no one.
16"For who has known the mind of the Lord, that he should instruct him?" But we have Christ`s mind.
