1 Corinthians 2:13-16 Good News Bible (GNB)

13. So then, we do not speak in words taught by human wisdom, but in words taught by the Spirit, as we explain spiritual truths to those who have the Spirit.

14. Whoever does not have the Spirit cannot receive the gifts that come from God's Spirit. Such people really do not understand them; they are nonsense to them, because their value can be judged only on a spiritual basis.

15. Whoever has the Spirit, however, is able to judge the value of everything, but no one is able to judge him.

16. As the scripture says:“Who knows the mind of the Lord?Who is able to give him advice?”We, however, have the mind of Christ.
