“PRIORITIES: THE MIND OF CHRIST”

I CORINTHIANS 2:10-16

[10] these things God has revealed to us through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches everything, even

the depths of God. [11]

For who knows a person's thoughts except the spirit of that person, which is in

him? So also no one comprehends the thoughts of God except the Spirit of God. [12]

Now we have

received not the spirit of the world, but the Spirit who is from God, that we might understand the

things freely given us by God. [13]

and we impart this in words not taught by human wisdom but

taught by the Spirit, interpreting spiritual truths to those who are spiritual.

[14]

The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and

he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned. [15]

The spiritual person

judges all things, but is himself to be judged by no one. [16]

“For who has understood the mind of the

Lord so as to instruct him?” But we have the mind of Christ.
