| 1 | When I came to you, brothers, I didn`t come with excellence of speech or of wisdom, proclaiming to you the testimony of God. | Ac 18:1-4 |
| 2 | For I determined not to know anything among you, except Jesus Christ, and him crucified. | 1Co 1:22-25 Jn 17:3 Ga 3:1 Ga 6:14 Php 3:8-10 |
| 3 | I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling. | 1Co 4:10-13 Ac 17:1 Ac 17:6-12 Ac 20:18 Ac 20:19 2Co 4:1 2Co 4:7-12 2Co 4:16-12 2Co 6:4 2Co 7:5 2Co 10:1 2Co 10:10 2Co 11:29 2Co 11:30 2Co 12:5-10 2Co 13:4 Ga 4:13 Ga 4:14 |
| 4 | My speech and my preaching were not in persuasive words of human wisdom, but in demonstration of the Spirit and of power, | Ac 20:27 |
| 5 | that your faith wouldn`t stand in the wisdom of men, but in the power of God. | 1Co 1:17 1Co 3:6 Ac 16:14 2Co 4:7 2Co 6:7 |
| 6 | We speak wisdom, however, among those who are full grown; yet a wisdom not of this world, nor of the rulers of this world, who are coming to nothing. | 1Co 14:20 Jb 1:1 Ps 37:37 Mt 5:48 Mt 19:21 2Co 13:11 Eph 4:11-13 Php 3:12-15 Col 4:12 Heb 5:14 Jm 3:2 1Pe 5:10 |
| 7 | But we speak God`s wisdom in a mystery, the wisdom that has been hidden, which God foreordained before the worlds to our glory, | Ps 78:2 Isa 48:6 Isa 48:7 Mt 11:25 Mt 13:35 Ro 16:25 Ro 16:26 Eph 1:4 Eph 3:4-9 Col 1:26 Col 1:27 2Ti 1:9 1Pe 1:11 Rev 13:8 |
| 8 | which none of the rulers of this world has known. For had they known it, they wouldn`t have crucified the Lord of glory. | 1Co 2:6 1Co 1:26-28 Mt 11:25 Jn 7:48 |
| 9 | But as it is written, "Things which eye didn`t see, and ear didn`t hear, Which didn`t enter into the heart of man, Whatever things God prepared for those who love him." | Isa 64:4 Jn 3:16 1Pe 1:12 |
| 10 | But to us, God revealed them through the Spirit. For the Spirit searches all things, yes, the deep things of God. | 1Co 14:30 Am 3:7 Mt 11:25-27 Mt 13:11 Mt 16:17 Lk 2:26 Lk 10:21 Eph 3:3 Eph 3:5 1Pe 1:12 Rev 1:1 |
| 11 | For who among men knows the things of a man, except the spirit of the man, which is in him? Even so, no one knows the things of God, except God`s Spirit. | Pr 14:10 Pr 20:5 Pr 20:27 Jer 17:9 |
| 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 by God. | 1Co 2:6 Ro 8:1 Ro 8:5 Ro 8:6 2Co 4:4 Eph 2:2 Jm 4:5 1Jn 4:4 1Jn 4:5 1Jn 5:19 Rev 12:9 |
| 13 | Which things also we speak, not in words which man`s wisdom teaches, but which the Holy Spirit teaches, comparing spiritual things with spiritual things. | 1Co 2:4 1Co 1:17 2Pe 1:16 |
| 14 | Now 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. | 1Co 15:44 1Co 15:46 Jm 3:15 Jud 1:19 |
| 15 | But he who is spiritual discerns all things, and he himself is judged by no one. | 1Co 3:1 1Co 14:37 Ga 6:1 Col 1:9 |
| 16 | "For who has known the mind of the Lord, that he should instruct him?" But we have Christ`s mind. | Jb 15:8 Jb 22:2 Jb 40:2 Isa 40:13 Isa 40:14 Jer 23:18 Ro 11:34 |
