1 Corinthians 2:4-13

4and my 1message and my preaching were 2not in persuasive words of 3wisdom, but in demonstration of 4the Spirit and of power, 5so that your faith would not 5rest on the 6wisdom of mankind, but on 7the power of God.

6Yet we do speak wisdom among those who are 8mature; a wisdom, however, not of 9this age nor of the rulers of 10this age, who are 11passing away; 7but we speak God’s wisdom in a 12mystery, the hidden wisdom which God 13predestined before the 14ages to our glory; 8the wisdom 15which none of the rulers of 16this age has understood; for if they had understood it, they would not have crucified 17the Lord of glory; 9but just as it is written: “18Things which eye has not seen and ear has not heard, And which have not entered the human heart, All that God has prepared for those who love Him.” 101920For to us God revealed them 21through the Spirit; for the Spirit searches all things, even the 22depths of God. 11For who among people knows the thoughts of a person except the 23spirit of the person that is in him? So also the thoughts of God no one knows, except the Spirit of God. 12Now we 24have not received the spirit of 25the world, but the Spirit who is from God, so that we may know the things freely given to us by God. 13We also speak these things, 26not in words taught by human wisdom, but in those taught by the Spirit, 27combining spiritual thoughts with spiritual words.
